When I parked this car ten years ago reverse worked just fine. Now I've got nothing. Refresh my memory...reverse is all the way to the left and forward on the stick right (no pushing down on the stick like a beetle, right?) I seem to remember constantly hitting reverse when trying to shift to second. Is there an adjustment I can check?

1st to 2nd is the most troublesome for the newbie with the 901.

Ah memories...

My 1980 Datsun 310 had a shift pattern identical to the 901. To keep you from engaging reverse when you wanted 1st, a beeper sounded when reverse was engaged, kind of an inside backup alarm.

It even had kind of a "targa" bar (actually a plastic trim piece that went over the roof and down the roof pillars.)
