Hello, I own 5 A1 Military Gators and have had 3 others. I was a Master auto and truck tech 22 years. I need to say that this info gatoraider said is untrue. Your gator should NOT roll forward or "creep at all when idling. In fact. It is fully disengaged so you can actually get out of the machine like in neutral. (Recommend full park brake on.) The problem many have with grinding when attempting to put in gear forward or reverse is HIGH IDLE. Since the trans has NO syncros, it will grind when the idle is high. Simply turn down the idle until it stops grinding. You do NOT have gear problems, you should NOT have any forward pressure or creep. If you do your idle is too high. This is not my opinion, this is fact. Respectfully submitted, God bless you all.

Thank you so much for your email. I did exactly what you told me to, and the problem was with the neutral switch on the transaxle. I also found a frayed wire from the ignition switch which caused enough of a problem that it burned out one section of my ignition switch. I fixed it, it cranked, and I thank you for taking your time to help me.
