My 1st gen had a similar problem, except it kept jumping out of 3rd. I "fixed" it by holding it there with my hand until I was ready for 4th.
Don't do what I did. One day it did stay in 3rd, but it was STUCK there. I couldn't get it to budge. Even bent the shifter trying to pull it out. I was able to limp it home, but if that happens to you in reverse it would be a whole different story.
Ended up slapping a used $100 tranny in there and it's gone strong the last 20k with no issues.
BTW The messed up one was a Marlin Crawler Tranny with only 15k miles. So, the old Junk Yard one has treated me better. Hahaha.
