How do you fix a loose stick transmission on a manual car?
It depends on what kind of car it is. Most if not all standard transmission cars have plastic bushings at the pivot points in the linkage. These get worn and out of round causing the shifter to be sloppy. Replacing them should help.
Why wont your manual 2002 Saturn shift out of 1st gear?
The first cause of the jump out from one to other gear is the loose shifter fork, which connects the shifting linkage and gears of the transmission. The second cause is loose shifting linkage itself, which connects the gear shifting knob and shifting fork. The shifting linkage and shifting fork become loose due to the rapid changing of gears from one gear to other at high speed of vehicle. The third cause is the misalignment of shifting linkage to the shifting fork.

Why wont your manual trans engage gears?
There are several different answers, depending on what is happening. If you have a hydraulic clutch, there maybe air in the system that is not allowing the clutch to release. If it is a Mechanical clutch, a linkage may have come loose or broken. A Shifter linkage may have broken or came apart which will not allow the connection from the shift lever to the Transmission.

I just had this problem with mine, and it was a loose nut on the linkage. There is also a brackett held on by the transmission pan bolts, they were loose too. After tightening all these up it shifts fine again now.

It might be good to check the linkage right at the transmission. See if it needs to be adjusted. Check the linkage under the dash. I had this problem and it was to small bolts that had come loose.
