When I went to use the h after the first frost, it started (eventually)but died when I let the clutch out in neutral. I thought the transmission oil might have thickened up with the cold, but even when it got into the 60s later in the day, it acted like it was in third or 4th and would start to move forward and die. I tried putting it in gear, but it didn't matter which I chose, it would die immediately like it was in first or reverse. I am able to push it in neutral, but there seems to be the resistance of a higher gear. The gear shift goes through the pattern like normal and I guess it's making the right noises. Can anyone figure out what the problem and (hopefully simple and inexpensive) fix is?? Thanks in advance.

Put the shifter in neutral and if the tractor still moves the shifter has jumped out of the rail and you are getting it in two gears. Not hard to fix, just pull out the lever and use a big screwdriver to line up the rails. Then weld and grind the worn end of the shifter. Should look like this when you are done. third party image

Pulled the lever, lined up the rails and in about 5 minutes had it running again. I got cocky and tried running through the gears before fixing the lever. Got it stuck worse than the first time (and outside too with cold and rain on the way!) All thee rails were way off this time and it took about 45 minutes to get it right. Back in the barn til the lever is fixed. Question: how close are the tolerances on the weld/grind repair? Any measurements available. Thanks again..

If you build it up too much it will bind. Just fit by trial and error. Anything is better than it is.

How cold was it? Maybe there is water in the oil & has the bottom gears frozen tight.

Just low 30s. Oil is fairly new and tractor has been stored in a barn since change, so I don't think any water.
