Agree a zillion percent. I'm not a supporter of the "We're all gonna die if we race a torqueflite" crowd, but, this is common sense. Anytime the motor and drive train lose their load in 1st gear you gotta check. The trans will seem fine puttsying around....but it's not. I remember when that happened, Jim.....This was the instruction we were given in big bold letters back in the sixties, before the fancy stuff was available. Just common sense, paying attention.

Good save! What caused the R&P failure? I am thinking how I set up the R&P, my first time and it lasted 6+ years.

It's a weird feeling when you tear one down and find no damage to the sprag. On one hand, you're happy nothing was broken, but on the other hand you're like, "Dang it, I just did all that work for nothing!"
