Hi Patrick,

Got up early this morning and took the shift return spring cover plate
off. The spring is unbroken. I will certainly clean everything up.

The shift return spring is either intact or broken. No in between. If
the spring is working, then the hangups must be due to linkages or
pivots. Disassemble, clean, lubricate everything between your foot and

the transmission.
