Does anyone know of an ajustment for the reverse lever? When I pull the lever back, It doesn't go into the groove that locks it.
 
some times the teeth for the reverse gear and idler gear don't line up... you must then put it back in forward and move the sled a little further so the gears have another chance at meshing.. this happens frequently but not all the time...

if you can never pull it into reverse, you may need to pull cover off chaincase and investigate...
 
That is not the problem. It is the lever itself. It won't lock into the reverse groove. If I hold the lever out it works fine. It is the linkage. I won't stay in the locked position.
