i was under he impression that the fellow wanted to unstick the stuck transmission > for what ever reason to perhaps just to take it a part> sometimes its nice to have it cleaned up to see what he could salvage or rebuild it or determin its condition > over the years i have come across many different types of trannys from all kinds of equipment that have locked up> some from rusting some just lock ed up because two gears were jammed so > its worth a look to see what you got not all locked up transmissions are scraped > i have a motor here that i use only in the summer months it sits for ten months of the year > every summer when i go to start it its locked up solid dont know why but i take a club hammer give it a stiff wack on the pully it turns right over and runs for 2 months straight then back to park mode ~ Copey
