Hey Sean, I'm always grateful for ANY and ALL info that comes my way. In this case, I'm the one that just hasn't been thinking. I have the green books, both the teardown and the maintenance and troubleshooting books. Sadly the diagrams all show the valve body and related gear exploded, so there's no way to figure out if the "cock's comb" is on one side or not. Gary Sellstrom believed it was. And he's right. Sadly, the retainer and pin are indeed obscured by the valve. body.

Not that I had to see any of that. It wasn't until I took the pan off again this morning that I remembered that the stupid selector shaft goes all the way to the other side--Gah!!! Easy enough to determine if the pin is sheared--and it's not--the other side of the shaft turns--dunh.

The car is over at my trans shop now. I am very much hoping it's a valve body problem--something stuck--but I have to admit I think the constantly engaged drive is evidence of a clutch pack all worn down and welded to itself. We'll see. I'll post back with results.

No apologies necessary by any means sir!
DS
