85 900 with 5 spd [saabnow]

Subject: 85 900 with 5 spd
=================
Hello,
I have a perplexing problem with 5th gear. Run down is. When cold goes
into 5th ok, with in a mile or two it balks or will not go in. I can get
it in by lifting the reverse lock out and moving it slightly more to the
right. I have measured the R lockout pin length at bottom of the shift
lever, replaced the pin joining the shift lever to the rod coming from
the trani, checked the rubber isolator on the shift rod but cant seem to
find a culprit. I have tried pausing between shifs up to a few seconds
(count of 5 or 6 by 1000's) but once warm no go. And to be cold it must
have been still for 5 hours or so. Changed fluid, no abnormal metal in
the fluid or on the magnet. Any ideas, though I dont mind lifting the R
lockout to find 5th I would much prefer to fix the issue or determine
that it is not worth fixing. The not finding is what is driving me
nuts.
Thanks
