Need neutral
Getting ready to transport 1923 T. Can not get tranny to find neutral. Head is off so no compression, but I would rather not have it roll onto transport in gear. Any suggestions? Transmission needs rework anyway, so I am just looking for quick interim disconnect.

Re: Need neutral
have you tried to pull handbrake lever back till it is straight up — just before it starts to apply parking brake.
or block low pedal down 1/2 way when I drug mine out of storage it had a lot of drag and it took a little time to get the clutch to release, I took off the transmission cover and squirted thin oil directly into the clutch (and on the bands), that freed it up. |

Re: Need neutral
Thanks. Also occurred to me that I could back off on the low band adjuster and allow band to slip.

The other option would be to take the keys out of the rear wheels and reinstall the wheels, so they roll without trying to roll the engine over. This is not the best way but has been done in the past. You will need a hub puller and big hammer.
