I have a 1945 Farmall A that has a transmission problem and I’d like some ideas on exactly what I should look for and how to correct it. It seems to occur primarily in reverse. When I back it up it tends to growl initially and then it has a slight lurch as it backs up depending on the amount of incline. It has a slight growl when the clutch is released going forward but otherwise operates smoothly after that in all forward gears. The shift lever changes gears easily and other than a little whine going forward, it works great in all forward gears. While I don’t think this is part of this issue, I do keep the pto in gear because it slows the input shaft from turning so I can shift it easily. If I don’t have the pto engaged, it takes several seconds for it to be shifted without grinding gears. If anyone has experienced this with their Farmall A, I would appreciate any specifics on what the likely source of the problem may be. Thanks in advance, Jerry
