07 Honda 420fm
So I bought a 420 project and the guy said it wouldn’t shift.
I took off the cover off put the linkage back the way it should be and it felt like it was shifting correctly.
Reassembled engine and now it will shift once then stop.
Turn engine off and I can put it in another gear then start it in 2nd gear but won’t move.
it will move in reverse and first but I have to turn the engine off and on to change the gear.
Otherwise with the engine off it will shift to all gears that feels like nothing is wrong.

Before it split the case I wanted to check with you all and see if you’ve heard of any of this happening.
The oil drain screw was stripped so I suspect piece of metal may have broken off in there but why in the world would it change gears with the engine off but not change gears with the engine on?…..very confused
