Re: [Chrysler300] Transmission jumps into gear?

[Steve Albu <saforwardlook@xxxxxxxxx>]

Steve,

Was the transmission really in gear, or was it in neutral and started
moving forward?  Sometimes when the clutch pack clearances are a little too
tight, the car will creep forward while in neutral.  You can go through
pulling the clutch packs out and setting a larger clearance, or you might
just find that a little aggressive driving, not overboard mind you, will
take care of this without any teardown.  Maybe others have other
experiences though.  It happened to me once when I rebuilt one of my
torqueflites, and that is what I did to take care of it.  Since then, I do
not set the very minimum limit clearance, but slightly larger using an
assortment of retaining rings.
Good luck,
Steve Albu
