Why is my CVT lawn tractor sticking in gear?
My Poulan Pro PB22VA48 lawn tractor is sticking in gear instead of stopping when I release the pedal. I have to press the brake pedal to stop or to shift from forward to reverse. The mower just started doing this yesterday--it had been fine all summer. I bought it new in May 2015.
Is this a good question?
I have the same problem on my 2017 Sears lawn mower. Someone needs to video the fix and post it on Youtube so we can avoid costly service calls.

These transmissions are General Transmissions Rs-800. There are videos already on YouTube. On the General Transmission web site there is a support tab that is also helpful. I personally have just installed my fourth replacement transmission in a 2014 Craftsman mower. These transmissions have not stood the test of time, in my experience. They Need too much TLC to be on a mower.
