Both arms of the shift cradle in place as well. Very often the brass connector is not installed correctly and will do pretty much what you are describing as well. Third thing to check after you have found and corrected the shift assembly is to adjust it properly. Yes there are adjustments that can be made by loosening the clamp screw on the shift handle and the cam screw found lower and to the left on the handle. This is to adjust so that you are assured of being fully into  fwd gear once shifted  by hand or control box. Fully into gear in this case means that the clutch dog is fully bottomed out in the forward gear dogs. As far as the after market fuel pump goes.....not going to touch that one. </blockquote>
