Freewheeling

I have, at the moment 2 1932 coupes.  They both have the freewheel button.  Both move slightly in and out, but neither pushes all the way in.   The Deluxe has given me a little trouble.  Intermittently, I go to engage the clutch and nothing happens.  I think that it works if I rev the engine first.  From my limited understanding of the system, this should not happen, especially in first even if in freewheel mode.  I understand that many people have "locked out" the system.  I would think that if it was properly locked out it would not fall into free wheel mode.  

Any wisdom would be appreciated.  I just want to have it work in normal driving and not surprise me and do nothing.

On my 321 I have the freewheeling cable disconnected and the lever on the transmission wired down.
