    Ok reporting back. I tried Dons method, removed the shift cable, and shifted the motor manually. It stayed in gear for about 10 seconds then popped out. No chattering just went into neutral. If I held the lever in reverse it worked fine.
    Will look at the indents / spring on the shifter lock. Maybe the reverse is worn out and it’s not holding? I’ll also double check the shift rod connection.
    If anyone else has any ideas I’m open for any and all suggestions.
    Thanks,
