Not Ranked
Eh,,, the Ammco guy is throwing out GENERIC politically correct advice that covers all transmissions of all makes and models under any concievable condition. A nice CYA approach to customer advice,,, but he didn't answer the question. Is it OK to coast YOUR manual trans?
Actually coasting would be better than towing!! When coasting you got the input shaft turning with the running motor (as was mentioned earlier) and the tail shaft turning from the rear end gears! Ford doesn't seem to care if the input shaft is turning or not (manual trans), there OK with just the tail shaft turning.
Ford says all manuals, no limit on towing, therefore, no limit of coasting!
