Check those started bolts. Some here have had the bolts back out causing the gears not to engage.

The problem was the starter bolts. The bottom bolt had fell out. Put some locktight on the bolts and no more worry on the bolts. I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea for a man to check that when he changes his oil. Thanks guys for your help and joegebff next time i will keep it on the same thread. Thanks again!!!!
