Re: [DMCForum] Shifter Problem

[DMCVIN6683 <dmcvin6683@xxxxxxxxx>]

The threads snapped off and are still in the Weld-nut attached to the 
frame. The bolt is still through the pivot hole in #13 Relay Lever 
#100549.

When i wiggle the rod that goes to the transmission linkage the shifter 
gets loose and sloppy but eventually works its way back so it shifts 
again, i dont understand how this is happening because it just 
shouldn't shift gears with this broken pivot point.
