Thanks all for input everybody. No issue at all finding reverse gate and into gear now.

Thanks. It is a A833. You’re the second person that’s given me the tip to wait an extra bit when it’s running. I haven’t had a chance to check that technique yet. It’s the engine off it’s easy. Just when running. Appreciate the reply!

Ooops, sorry for that man. But mine is a ‘69. What I’ve discovered now is it seems normal/easy to find reverse gate with the ignition off. If the car is running, finding R out of Neutral is sketchy.

I didn’t make the engine on/off distinction before today. With the motor off it seems normal. I can find the reverse gate consistently. My issues looking back have been with the engine on. There’s no issue engaging reverse then starting the car? I’ve never started any manual engaged before...

Perfect. Thanks. I can come back if that’s ok to let you if any issues persist?

UPDATE: Should it matter if the motor is running or not? Again, could be my perception but I tried it again just now and found the gate smack to left of neutral - where it should be. One other time, sitting the garage, I had good luck finding it. Then getting gas it was elusive. That’s why...

Usually I’ve found it immediately after out of first and the right pressure left. But finding the gate seems inconsistent. I admit it could be me tho because it’s so new.

More often than not I have difficulty finding reverse. All forward gears are fine. I understand it takes a bit extra pressure. Is it better to try to feel the reverse detent coming out of 2nd or 1st, or does it matter? Is there a best technique to help a new RR owner? Thanks for any insights!
