Air shifter wont
#5

WWWeeellll.... My predicament was that I had the engine running in reverse, park brake locked, at 28 degrees with a moderate easterly wind. Of course the engine will not shut down unless in neutral. It would not shift out of reverse. In the past I had manually moved the transmission shift input from the engine compartment but couldn't get it to move. If I raised the back of the coach I could see the shifter through the wheel well but couldn't reach it. I WILL NOT crawl under without cribbing. I found a 5' long wooden dowel in my shop and was able to reach under from the back of the coach enough to manually push the linkage and get it into 3rd....Good enough . I drove ahead halfway down my driveway and backed into my shop perfectly in one shot. It still would not go out of reverse. I turned the key off, found my trusty wooden dowell and pushed the linkage out of reverse , shutting down the engine.
At least it is in the warm shop. I know what one of my winter projects will be....
Thanks for the responses guys...I may need to talk to Michael about it.
