<VV> Transmission problems - powerglide AND manual - looking for advice

[shortle]

Hi Andy,
On the PG car just separating the trans from the differential should give you all the needed access you need. Either replacing the complete governor with a good part/nylon gear or just replacing the gear should be all that is needed. The gear is held onto the governor with a small roll pin.
I know nothing about manual transmissions.

>Guys,
>4 speed problem:  A friend and I are both having the same problem on out 65 4 speed transmissions.  Sometimes (not always) when in neutral, as the clutch is released it sounds and feels like the gears are trying to engage; and the car creeping forward.  My guess is a problem in the trans - any ideas?

>Powerglide problem:  I helped another friend pull his powerpack for some work.  Pulling the governor - much of the driven gear is broken off; with some pieces visible inside by the drive gear.  Any idea how to remove these visible parts; or where any other pieces may have migrated to?  We really don't have the time or talent to disassemble the trans; hopefully we don't need to.
