    If you are lucky you may just need to adjust the slack out of your cables.But if it is as bad as you make it sound I would say that it is time for a new reverse gear and clucth dog...Good luck...

    Check the cables and linkage first for sure! Could also be a broken piece in the controls so if you have a safe place to test it disconnect cable at motor and engage by hand and see if it grabs.
    Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. :rolleyes:
