Can someone tell me what would cause my 97 txt to hesitate before engaging after shifting from forward to reverse and back. Thanks.

You need a new drive belt.

I don't hear a click but it does jerk when it catches and takes off.

Re: Hesitation before cluth is engaging
mine did that, too. i got the shorter drive belt, and now no jerking. not saying you need the shorter belt, just that i switched mine to the shorter, so not sure if the regular would have done the same.

Re: Hesitation before cluth is engaging
It depends on the width of the belt, as to wether a new one will fix the hesitation.
The belt should be no more narrow than 1-1/16". Sometimes the weight pins become rusted and bind inside the drive clutch. They release with a sudden jerk, and sometimes a slight squeal. Bob |

Thanks for the help. Changed belt to shorter belt and no more jerking.
