Is there any new tips and tricks for breaking loose a 1715 clutch these days, other than the old run it into a tree method?
Only forgot my clutch pedal block for a week and it's already locked up. I can probably roll it down a hill and get into high range 3thrd and then try to go back up the hill and see if it breaks loose. From a stand still I can only get it in low range so not enough torque on the clutch to break it free. I can point it down hill, put it in high 3 and probably start it in gear ... but then of course I'm not stopping unless I shut it down, or the clutch frees up.
Sure wish there was an access plate where I could get in there and separate the plates.
