BS came over and we got to work on the motor! Thanks BS

Well the bad news is that the reverse is still not working!

Good News is we have found the problem, we think? the part you connect the cable to that turns the shift rod is worn. It has a round rod with one flat side pressed in, the hole has worn letting you move that piece almost a inch before it does anything.
The spare motor was not any better! So the thought is to see if we can have it tack welded till I find the name of the part and can order another??

Hopefully BS can find his friend tomorrow and get it welded, other wise we will get it done Monday.

I want a new motor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
