Hello, just an update, engine oil was drained and looked surprisingly good for sitting for fifty yesrs, new oil put in. The trans is different story, the shifter is stuck in second or reverse, and when I removed tran oil drain, it is all tar. My question is how do I handle this? Can I heat the trans with infrared bulb and see if I can liquify this tar? What type of fluid can I safely put in fill port to "cut" this tar so I can drain it? I really appreciate all info. Thanks, Richard
