my apologies - I stand corrected!
I think in terms of a CVT the engine will need to turn over to drive the hydraulics, so it is necessary to keep it in drive. This again depends on the design of CVT.
unless of course you install a manual clutch inbetween the gearbox and the engine but that is a different story all together!
