I have a 71 C-10 that's been sitting for over a year while I've stripped down and restored the whole body. I did not touch the drivetrain because it ran and drove flawlessly. Today I decided to fire it up for the the first time in about 15 months. After changing the oil and priming the fuel system (which I completely drained), it fired right up and ran fine after blowing out a couple minutes of cobwebs!
So then I try t pulled it down into 1st gear (3 on the tree), but no dice! Thought the ole linkage was jammed but it wasn't. :confused:
My thinking is the clutch disc somehow glued itself to the flywheel. Anybody ever have this problem? If so, any easy solutions without having to pull the whole tranny and clutch out? I've had several other manual trannied old vehicles that sat for extended periods of time and never before experienced this!
Any help, guys?! :mad: & :confused:
