First post, like the site everybody. I tried searching but didn't find what I was looking for.
I have a 79 K10 with a 350/sm465/no205. I use the truck mainly for off roading here in east TN. I've had this happen twice where I was going up a hill had it in too high of a gear and the engine stalled. I new the truck would start but to start it at this point I would have to push in the clutch while giving it gas, so there for no foot on the brake. So I would roll backwards. Thankfully I was able to guide the roll into a rock to hold me in place.
My question comes here- Am I able to disable the clutch start so I can avoid this, and use my starter to crawl over certain obstacles? If so how would I go about doing it?
Thanks for the help guys.
