Re: Sorry, just a question...
I have a fairly large pass that I have to drive over to get to work. Work is about 22 miles away and the pass is 15 - 16 miles. The west side of the pass is the worst...6 percent grade and about 11 miles. Will it hurt the tranny if I put in neutral and coast on the way down? It is steep enough that I still get 60 - 65 mph...so is that ok???

What would the purpose be of placing the tranny in neutral going down the hill?

Exactly.... you car will coast down hill just fine at that speed with little to no engine braking (you should be at 1500 rpm or less).
