HELP.6speed Rolls IN Nutral
While driving home on Rte 78 there are hills. Car is slowed to 10 mph and put in Neutral, slight incline in roadway, my fet on the floor and my car maintains 10 mph. What the heck. Is it clutch tranny or something else.
Thanks All

If you found a way to hold speed uphill with the trans in neutral find a Patent Atty. quick.

Maybe the incline looks like it is uphill but really slightly downhill instead. Visual cues can make you think a hill is sloping one way when it is actually sloping the other. Ran into this a long time ago on a road in the mountains. Road looked like it sloped steeply downwards but when we brought the car to a stop and put it into neutral and released the brake it rolled backwards.

For this to happen would take 2 very unusual failures at the same time. Your clutch isn't totally disengaging and your shift linkage isn't working correctly.
Either that or you just found a perpetual motion machine and need to find an Attorney to file a Patent and to protect yourself from Patent thieves.
