Won't go into drive,

Hi I have a RX70-30 that wont go into drive , the machine starts and runs ( a bit lumpy )and revs, however, when you put it into drive, it will not move or rev.
The machine originally had great difficulty in starting and would not tick over, I have changed the vapouriser, plugs and leads, now starts and runs , although, not smoothly. It will rev to max and sounds okay at high rpm.
Does the seat belt switch have any influence over going into drive?
Many thanks
Martin
