I think this will be a simple problem for those in the know.
It is about as basic a gas forklift as has been made.
Xmas morning, moved forklift, been sluggish drivewise for years, lost all drive.
You can select forward or reverse, feels like it has engaged, but other than a very slight movement, nothing happens.
I have a workshop manual for this model and Im reasonably ok with most mechanics.
So is it torque converter or valve which engages drive?
Any help much appreciated!!

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
