Wheels do not freely roll backwards
I just replaced the nylon springs on the rear wheels and now my rear wheels do not turn freely when I try to pull the mower backwards. Is the transmission supposed to be free when not engaged?

SOUNDS LIKE THE PINONS ARE ON BACKWARDS. THE KEY SHOULD SLIDE OFF THE PINIONS WHEN PULLED BACK AND LOCK WHEN ENGAGED. YOU HAVE THE OPPOSITE PROBLEM OR ITS BACKWARDS!
