HI everyone, hope someone can help with this...driving over a pile of brush my pedal jammed into forward gear, all the way to the floor. I was eventually able to loosen it up and discovered that the rod on the HST plate (part #10 on the attached) was bent at a 45 degree angle. I replaced the plate this afternoon, and everything seemed to line up well in the linkage(s), but now the pedal is pointing up and what used to be the neutral position has me rolling in reverse. When I replaced the plate I did have to screw the neutral switch out a little because the plate would not engage the switch and it wouldn't start. Nothing else looks bent, but I'm not sure. Can I start troubleshooting by adjusting the pedal neutral? If so, how can I do that? Thanks in advance...
