I have a ford dexta and when i opened the gear box /trans to check the gear oil i noticed it was very low so i added more to it(submerged the bottom of the gears) There was some water in it but i left it. Today i go out and i take out the clutch and it seems like it wants to go in reverse but it wont, and it was in neutral. So it shut er down and siphoned all the water off the top and drained the fluid . By the way the tractor wouldnt go into any gear. After i applied heat to it (via heat gun) and i got the high low speed lever to move. Why wont it go into gear? Is there water frozen in it? What can i do? I need to get it moving by tomorow cause im getting a block heater installed , a rim fixed, and sway bars. Thanks in advance
Sean

Sean I tried to answer on the other forum but did'nt see where you were on progress.

I re-read all of what was said and still believe the problem would be either in the shift rails or the shift forks.

The Dexta is bad about wearing out the rail and shift fork for the reverse oposition.

You had said it tried to go into reverse to begin with. So, is the tranny in reverse or has it locked in nuetral?

Dear Burrhead thanks you for the help i borrowed a salamander heater and put it right next to it and after about 40mins it went into all the gears no prob , so i figure water was frozen in them. Now its in a heated shop and tomorow its getiing flushed and new gear oil. Thanks!
