That is normally something wrong with the throw out bearing and the tube it rides on.

Just what kind of Suburban tractor is this? The only ones I'm familiar with are the Sears/Roper Suburbans.

Hi Bill ok there is a clutch return spring on an idler pulley that tightens the drive belt serveral things could have happened the spring broke or the spring attachments may have broken, here's a link to manauls for the Suburban tractors if you find your then you can look and see how it all works.

I forgot to say the clutch idler is attached under the battery tray and the spring attaches to it and goes back toward the dash, if your tractor still has all the covers you'll have to remove the side cover just below the battery to see it.
