I got a manual lawn tractor for $80 and like any stupid kid I pulley swapped it (1:2.5 to 3:1) blew a few belts and the replacement one was 2” longer than the original one (very loose without tensioner and needs it all the way out) and after stretching 2” in a minute I had to put on a second tensioner and I got a new belt that was 2” shorter then the original belt 82” vs 84” and it won’t go on so I tried to stretch it and it wouldn’t stretch even a bit, do some belts stretch and others don’t or am I doing something wrong? Doesn’t matter if I mess it up a bit since the transmission cracked in half but it goes 35 mph, does burnouts and wheelies.
