Don,
I guess I got involved in other stuff and forgot about this thread. By touchy reversing gear I meant it seemed I could find a notch where it wouldn't slip in forward, but maybe neutral wasn't really neutral. Or I could get neutral more correct, but then it wasn't quite right at one or the other end of the shifter range. I have your excellent manual and think I'm doing the adjustment right, but I haven't found the magic combination of adjusting collar and cable lengths to make it work smoothly and be reliably in neutral with the shifter in the detent. While I have your attention, since my throttle/shift lever needs replacing anyway, will a modern single lever control work with the A4 and its reversing gear? There's also a new product called PowerTiller (powertiller.com) that puts the controls at the end of the tiller. Have you seen that one?

Thanks,
Jim
