Repeat flushing up to 2 more times before giving up.
Sometimes it takes that long to get enough grease dissolved to release things.
After flushing, work the lever up as far as you can push and then-
SLOWLY let it back down. Repeat 5-6 times.
That gives the pawl more "time" to engage. Once it starts, things get better fast.
^^^^^ Be generous. Get the red tube in as many spots as you can. If the shifter has a cover you can pop off so much the better. I've been known to use half of big can on a shifter.
