Gary -
There are lots of reasons that can cause this, but my experience is
this is usually caused by a mechanic, in some previous time, taking
the gearbox cover off and losing the detente balls and springs (or
being too lazy to put them back in).
Thankfully replacing the detente balls and springs is easy and pretty
cheap to do. Just order them from your favorite supplier and spend an
hour or so ripping the tunnel out to get the gearbox cover off and
back on again with the balls in place.
