I recently replaced the firewall bushing and rear shift coupling bushing. Since performing the work, it has been increasingly difficult to shift/find reverse. In addition, first has been a little difficult to locate. I am looking for guidance before I jack the car up and climb under. BTW, its a 74 2.0. Any help is appreciated.

OK, you just replaced the bushings. Check the cone screws. You had them out and probably used the same ones upon reinstalling the shifter. I believe the new cone screws come with a dot of thread-locker to ensure they do not back out.
If you plan to re-use the cone screws, dab just a dot of thread-locker juice oin them then snug them tight. Eric Read |
