OK, so the new to me 1200 has the extra lever for the creeper, however, there is 2 detents for the shift lever, BUT the lever goes far past the forward detent for the standard drive, and moving toward the rear brings nothing but neutral (maybe a tiny bit of gear noise, hard to tell)

I've done a bit of searching here, doesn't seem to be much chatter about "common problems" with these, so before I go thru the work of pulling it off to peek inside, is there common problems?

Schematic seems to show a roll pin type of retainer, tying the lever to the shift fork. I'm guessing that's my problem.

Thoughts from the experts? Input from the novices?
