Can you get your car in neutral so that your wheels turn freely? IF so then crawl under your car and check to see if your gears are in proper alignment. You do this by bringing all your gears to neutral and if you will look at your shifter and linkage from below the car you will notice three sets of rods that connect to some levers on the drivers side of your transmission. At the back of those rods is your shifter that is mounted to the tail shaft of the tranny. Each rod attaches to a lever in your shifter and each lever has an ear that should extend below the shifter box. Each lever has a 1/8" hole in it. With your car in neutral make sure all your shifter levers are aligned by inserting a drill bit thru the before mentioned holes. If they are not aligned then you must manually move each lever on the transmission to the middle position with the exception of the reverse lever which may be in gear in the forward position or in the back position depending on your transmission. Once you determine it the shifter alignment is ok then get back to us and we can tell you how to adjust your linkage.
