    Hello fellow truckers ,

    i have a 2000 freightliner century with detroit 60

    im just now pulling out the warehouse dock in first gear, everything was normal until I tried to float in 2nd gear.
    it won't pop in second and the engine revs itself , I tried 3rd gear and same, the engine just revved by itself without being in gear.

    next I start in first gear and flipped high gear switch to 2nd gear an it went in gear then 3rd gear and the engine lost power as if I was in neutral .


    now I'm in first gear and double clutch to 2nd 3rd and 5th without failure, all seems normal but I can't double clutch into 6th gear. High gear and so forth


    What hat could be the problem? Transmission problem? Burnt clutch?
    Please help, any response would be a great help
