I have a Rover Turbothrust (Rover model 06099) Self Propelled Mower with a lovely Intek55 that I fixed up. I have lots of mowers but this one is a good looking powerhouse! When I did the rings & stuff I had disconnected the drive chain and now that it is back together will only self propel slowly.(by comparison with the "light speed" that it did before my repair.) I did put a little oil on the chain. But wait for it. I have a large flat washer over! I feel pretty guilty now. When I went to a online diagram of this unit, I could not see a large flat washer.????? So that is my problem. Slow speed & a surplus washer. I believe you guys can help me. regards Chris.

I will answer my own posted question.LOL.
The washer was not from this mower.
The drive discs had oil on them from lubricating the chain, so after cleaning with solvent the speed has been returned to an acceptable pace.
