If it's some consolation I also was in a position with my tr-6. I'd loaned it
out to a high school kid for prom. (I KNEW I should have unplugged the wiring
for the overdrive) Any way he parked it in front of my garage and left. I
got in and found it was still in overdrive. I COULD NOT get it out of gear or
overdrive. Pushed the clutch in and no difference. nothing worked. I
finally gritted my teeth and backed up about 5-6 feet just enough to get
turned and going forward. The backing up was excruciating because it did buck
and bind something awful.
I got turned around and drove forward and clicked it
out of overdrive and unplugged it and never used it for a year. I never even
tested it! Then a year later I plugged it in............tested it and it
worked! Have been using it ever since. very very grateful for actually
having dodged a bullet, which doesn't happen often!
sooo you might not be as
bad off as you think.
