I finally got my 92 Ex all together and ready to drive after a trans swap also added a transgo shift kit and Sonnax high ratio boost valve. I could not get reverse to engage at all, I have all forward gears shifting fine. This led me to a few different searches here and I have came up with the most probable cause. The low/reverse servo is not operating properly. So last night I dropped the pan and removed the bolts for the servo cover. With the cover off the servo was bottomed right out and it took a good pull with some pliers to get it to come out (well more like spring out, splattering ATF all over my face, lol!).

So the question is what do I do now? I know I need to get a screwdriver in there to see if there is some spring on the band. Other than that I am really clueless as what else I should attempting to accomplish.

For reference, I had the servo out for a long time while I was doing the shift kit on the valve body, so the trans was moved lots without it in place.
