Tom Devoe Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I believe that would be the knob to actuate the free wheeling transmission. It was supposed to save fuel by putting the car into neutral when you let off the gas. You lose engine braking when it's engaged, so was deemed to be dangerous, especially going down hill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
