Default Can I Power shift or hard shif?

My car won't get into gear. I did some research and I think I know what I have to do. Thing is it's parked out in a public spot and I would like to move it.

Should I FORCE my car into gear? Is that possible? Is it good for my clutch/tranny?

I just want to drive it someplace better so I can work on it or even bring it to a shop.

Thanks

Can you put it in gear with the engine off? If so, then do that

Hey Sebba, last I remember the answer is No. :[

I tried hoping it would catch. To be honest tho, I did not try that hard. You know, I didn't want to force it. I know when I push the car I can drop it into 1st, but almost can't make 2nd afterwards (tho again, I didn't want to force it).

Thoughts?

Thanks again man.

Damn, you serious? Fffffffaaaaaacccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Hold up. When I checked the master cylinder resv. there was no fluid inside. I was under the impression I had a leak or a bad slave. But I see what you are saying, with the car off if I am unable to put it in gear then it's more than fluid.

Aw man, I'm rushing over and making that f#$k#$ get in gear while off.

Yea, I did that - nothing. Maybe I didn't pump enough? How much pumping should I do? I was by myself so I couldn't really tell if bubbles were coming out or if they stoppped coming out.
