737 Landing Gear Transfer Unit

There have been two threads (now closed?) on the forum about operating the LGTU after a loss of System A fluid:

and

http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthr...+transfer+unit

Is the consensus that it is possible to raise the gear in this case by shutting down the No 1 such that N2 reduces below 56% (Classic) - idle N2 is ~63% so won't achieve the objective....

Is the consensus also that in the EIS equipped classic's, there is no No 1 N2 tacho circuit breaker to pull that will accomplish the same objective, and that even in non-EIS equipped 737's where there is a circuit breaker, pulling this will have no effect, as it is only concerned with the integral lighting to the unit?

Not that anyone is advocating pulling breakers....

Thanks.
