I have the shifter blues

**wowitsfast** · 10-03-2014

Hi guys i just bought my 1st gtp I love it, pretty darn fast. I need help with the shifter tho. The car wont go into reverse or park even tho the shifter goes into those positions. It has gone into reverse be for and park as well. the person i bought the car from said he thought it was a shift position sensor under the stick. i couldnt find a part by that name so i just got a new assembly (not cheap) but its doing the same thing. I know reverse works it went into reverse on its own once. Thanks in advance to any tips you can share

Probably the shifter cable. If I had to guess.

busted clip on the cable at the trans side of the cable.

**wowitsfast** · 10-03-2014

thanks for the tip.. is this clip on the outside of the transaxle? i hope so lol

**Scottydoggs** · 10-04-2014

follow the cable to the top rear of the trans on the driver side.

You nailed it! The plastic sheath that goes from the shift cable to the shift lever on the transaxle is busted in 3 peices. Hope its not hard to find but ill blood hound it. Maybe i can rig up a coat hanger from the lever through the fire wall and manually shift it! lol jk my dad is a oaky and some rubbed off on me. thanks again for your help

junk yard is your best bet. pretty sure people have rigged the clip to get by. no way id do that manual shift with a hanger tho lol

it may even be the cable end split. seen a few guys here flat out needed a new cable. if its the cable those dont cost all that much new.

where the cable enters the fire wall is a plastic block/clip. you need to pinch it to free it, sometimes its easier from the inside of the car to release it. pliers are your friends here.

its splits in the engine bay so i got it apart and got its out just have to find one. thanks for your help

got one from picknpull 10 bucks and im back in buisness! im so excited the thing runs like i wild animal that been caged to long. full headers that do not connect to a down pipe dual flowmasters no cat no egr 3.4 pull i think the supercharger has been massaged not sure about the internals but the car is fast

oh ya intense raceing pcm are those a good one? car runs rich smells pretty stout think a local tuner could lean it out?

**Fivefingerdeathpunch** · 10-07-2014

It's quick, not fast lol.

It may smell rich but it likely doesnt have a cat converter and all you smell is the catless exhaust.

You'd also never be able to tell either even if it was tuned it wouldnt run rich all the time, but only for that 5-10 seconds you are heavy on the throttle. Otherwise it will try to command stoich (14.7 afr) for normal driving and idle.

maybe its just me but 150 is fast and its got there quickly.. i through i egr code today noticed i dont have one any ideas? both the header and the intake are plugged also through bank 2 o2 sensor code i ausume its because of lack of cat anything i can do about this besides install the components? thanks for any ideas. also fivefinger could running rich have anything to do with the evap cansister?
