When I'm driving my car it does not like to go into fourth gear. Every other gear is fine except fourth. The only way it does go into fourth gear is if I shift as if it's going into fourth, but it goes into 2nd instead. I pull it out, then slide it back into fourth and it goes into gear. Any ideas what this could be?

Do you have to tap/thread the lever shaft and shift finger? Haynes P.57 for those following at home.

Haynes P.57 for those following at home. to clarify... on my side shifter.. .yes. on the shift console, we remove the roll pin and install a bolt with a lock nut in its place I think the nut is tack welded too... everything is buttoned up right now or I could take a picture. |

Thank you for the input. I understand what you're saying about the bolt and lock nut replacing the roll pin. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of shape the bushings are in when I tear it down. My car won't be getting any track use, just regular street driving.. |
