1945 John Deere model A... hand start.
This tractor has the high/low transmission. Is reverse supposed to work in high and low range? Right now reverse is not working in either range and forward gears only work on high range. I pulled the top transmission plate and all the gears and shifters look fine (no excessive wear). The shift lever looks fine too. When I first got the tractor 4 years ago gears worked.....nothing has been done to the transmission and tractor has been run less that one hour since that time. Did not run tractor because I was doing some minor restoration. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!
