I have an 1800 Oliver and the clutch won't disengage when I press in the pedal. I think my pressure plate is seized to the fly wheel. I had this problem over the summer a few times, but popping the pedal in and out seemed to work then, but it doesn't work now.
The tractor is sitting in a shed with a snow blower attached to the back. I can't really pull it out into the yard to try another method because the soil here is so saturated, that I will put ruts everywhere and probably get stuck in the mud..
I read some where that you can jack up one wheel and block the other and then start the tractor in high gear. Once started , you can try hitting the brake to free the clutch. Has anyone tried this method and had success, or know of another method I can try?
