sounds like problem is in linkage from controls to shift rod.Either adj. out, or cable loose at cotrols Possibly faulty cable.

You may have a stretched cable or out of adjustment put the shifter in nuetral and check the cable on the engine there should be a mark on the housing the engine where it hooks up take the cotter pin out move the shift pin to that mark and adjust the cable end to it put the pin back in and try that
