I've had this machine a bit over a year and it's basically ran fine the whole time. Looks like it was rebuilt then parked. Only real work on it was repressuring the brake accumulator. The forward/neutral/reverse lever has always been really stiff if it sits for a month or more. I usually just use it in my yard. However, I took it out on the road (and over lots of snow) a few days ago for about a 3 mile drive. Everything worked fine, but I accidently left it in reverse when I parked it. When I went back to start it the next day, I can't get it out of reverse. If I really push the handle up, I can get it into the neutral position, but I think I'm just stretching the cable, it doesn't feel like anything is trying to move on the other end. It won't start because it still thinks it's in reverse. It's been below freezing all week, so it might have gotten some water in the cable housing driving through the snow? It gets above freezing tomorrow, so I'm hoping that's what it is. Any other ideas?
