Answer
Jesse: Right out of my repair manual...1.worn or improperly adjusted linkage, transaxle loose on engine, 2.shift linkage done not work freely, binds, 3.input gear bearing retainer broken or loose, 4.dirt between clutch cover and engine housing, 5.worn shift fork. You really should go out and buy yourself a repair manual for your car. It would walk you through things to check and how to do that checking. Those repair manuals cost around $20.00 and well worth the money. Hey try to get an Haynes as they have better pictures and things. Hope this helps and God bless: Linda
