I'm trying to grasp how this OD unit works. On the 85 740t m46, its currently not running. The car was parked for 10+ years in the POs garage. I know the slave cylinder is shot. I have no clutch actuation at all at this time. But I was playing around and bumped starter with the car in gear. I was expecting for the car to move/rock, and it didn't. I can actually turn the engine over with car in gear and clutch out with no noticeable resistance. Turns over the same as when in neutral. PO has been very honest about everything, and I do not question when he says it was shifting fine when parked.
What are your thoughts on this? I'm pretty sure the OD has a pump and depends on pressure to engage. Would sitting for 10+ years cause the OD to slip this badly? (I'm assuming at this point that the flywheel is turning the clutch disk and transmission.)
