Push down and pull the shifter to the drivers seat. Otherwise you may have an issue with your tran. Mine will go in Reverse but not stay there for long. They tell me it could be a little bar in there that is bent or i may need to replace the gear.
also check your shift rod bushing.
It is cheap to replace couple bucks and does amazing things for your shifting.
