Howdy all,
Its the first time I have asked a question.
After driving the tractor to its space in a field; having the tractor sitting in the field the last 7 years, we got her running except for it not being able to go into gear.
Flywheel turns, rebuilt clutch plate installed, re-greased throw out bearing. Can shift it into gear and drive from a start. But, trying to place in gear from a neutral position into 1st, 2nd, etc nothing but grinding. Anyone ever run into this before and have a suggest to try?
Thanks
P
 
Did you change the pressure plate? If not the ends of the release levers are worn and they will not travel far enough now with the thicker clutch plate.

Yes sir. New pressure plate. Now you do bring to mind an interesting thought. Maybe add washers to increase ability to push the release levers a bit deeper. It could be the new clutch thickness might be off by just 60 ml.
