My 4245 with 12 x 12 power shuttle transmission has a problem with the reverse hydraulic clutch. The reverse clutch seems to be grabbing all the time even when not engaged. It is making the transmission lightly active and shifting gears is now a problem. With the shuttle lever in neutral and even the foot clutch engaged the tractor wants to move backwards slightly. if the brake is applied it is easy to stop and the normal operation of the shuttle in both directions is still ok. I had to defeat the neutral safety switch so i can start the tractor already in gear. Otherwise the gears will grind while trying to shift.

My bet is the reverse solinoid. It's on top of transmission. Take the floor up and there is a plate for access.
