placed in forward engine stalls, can restart it normally

[JOHN COOKSON]

the only thing that is changing is the guts of the reversing gear as you shift. This has me baffled.

What about the link in post #6?

Seems like the link in #6 is a stall after the A-4 is in forward and revved up. If i understand correctly this stall happens during the shift from neutral to forward.
Heck I am even wondering if the shifter, cable or the arm on the transmission is hitting something. That's how flummoxed I am.

Dan is correct regarding the video in entry #6—that stall occurred *after running* in forward. The only other thread I could find that comes close to the current puzzle is from ‘08. (Unfortunately I can’t fetch it now, as I’m away from my computer). The common denominator in those earlier threads was a misadjustment of the reversing gear. This got my attention because Gary mentions tightening the forward adjusting collar a notch (or 2?) when his problems started. This makes me wonder if reverse and forward are somehow (temporarily) competing when he shifts into forward.
