With everything you said I never heard you say you checked the oil or put in oil Hope it didn't run tight on you.I'm not sure if your model has one but some also have safety switches under the clutch pedal . If not have you checked the hydrostatic oil im not sure if your is hydro but that could also keep it from shifting in gear and possibly keep it from starting to protect transmission. Just some ideas good luck

Park brake switch is the most likely culprit,any other would cause the tractor to not turn over in the crank position.

Check the belt its not tight, its loose or not fitted right.------
May be you put the belt loose or not properly.------
I agree belt is new, the belt is not the problem but its placement is problem.its coming out of its pulleys.Recheck that belt is intact and in-place and not getting loose.--------
Also recheck the connection of pto switch and seat switch.Remove the switch one by one and by pass it with a jumper wire and see if the blades getting engaged.-------
----------
Also check the bolt that holds the idler arm to the deck ,that bolt gets worn out causing the the arm to move up and down.

This will help.Thanks.Helpmech.

It ended up being the plastic needle in the carb was stuck.. Replaced it with a brass one. Runs like a champ now. Up and mowing.
