I have a '51 H and when i go to drive it on the road in 5th gear it stalls out when starting on a slight hill. It runs perfectly fine otherwise. It also has a loader on it which is fairly heavy. Is the weight of the loader causing the hard start in road gear? Or is there a trick to getting up to speed, for example starting out in a specific throttle position? Thanks for any help.

Roger is correct, Minor grinding into fifth from fourth is normal, it takes both hands, (one to shift, one to throttle, and left foot to clutch) resulting in interesting steering tactics for one or two seconds. Do shift it. Up a hill, leave it in fourth, or go the other way till it flattens out enough to get up to speed (shifting) befor the hill. JimN

Double clutching is to keep gears from clashing (as much) when you shift a transmission without a syncromesh. Like a tractor, I learned in a Ford model A truck. Start in a lower gear, let out clutch to get rolling, then depress clutch and shift to neutral, let off gas a bit, let clutch out then back in, shift to next higher gear and let clutch back out. It slows down the input shaft to better match the transmission gears. Once you practice a bit you will get the hang of it. Practice on flat ground before you take on a grade since you have to do it faster or you will slow down or stop.

Road gear and a hill and a loader from a standing start? Give the old girl a break, drop down a gear, (or two), to start then clutch and back the throttle down and double clutch to high after you get going then add the throttle, especially with that much extra weight. Might take some practice but it will save the clutch.
