Hi Mr Ed
I can welcome you to the forum, but I can not advise you on transmission issues, and that is in all likelihood what you are describing. I have never cracked a case, but I will probably give it a shot this year.
Again, welcome.

I would suspect that you have a bent shift fork. It's possible that if this has been going on for a long time the engagement dogs have been worn down.

Do you have a manual? If not you'll need one.

hi
sounds like a tricky job - I only have the tune up manual, so I will try and get hold of a one -- any ideas where?

Yep, check here . If you'd like one cheaper, take a look on ebay.
