Or maybe the clutch? It hasn't moved for a couple months as I am not smart enough to put new wires in to have both tail and brake lights. Anyway, today was the day to resolve that so I wanted to move it closer to my shop but I could not get it to go into gear! It has been sitting in neutral but when depressed the clutch and attempted to put into 2nd gear, I got a bit of grinding so backed off quickly. Tried again but no grinding and no going into gear. Tried the other three and reverse and same thing - a hint of grinding, back off try again and no way is it going into gear. Shut the engine off and tried to get into gear with engine off but no joy. This thing sat for 20 some years without issue in the case of the transmission so I can't imagine that just sitting for a couple of months did something. I have seen clutches filled with mice nests before and wonder if that may be the issue but I think I should be able to get it in gear with engine off. What do you folks think? Thanks for any help or ideas!.
