hold the shifter all the way up and try to start your bronco if it starts adjust the shift linkage and passing gear linkage if it stilldoesn't start replace the neutral safety switch
Linkage adjust
Bent or binding shift linkage Try lubricating shift linkage and/or cable
usually a linkage problem - adjust linkage that connects transmission to gear shift
If you are no longer able to shift, then it's possible the linkage is broken. If this is a periodic problem, you may need to adjust the linkage or shift cable so that everything is prooerly lined up
Check the shift linkage to see if it is loose , and has gotten out of adjustment . Unhook both the high /reverse linkage and the low linkage . See if you can shift it out of gear with a pair of pliers . Then see if you can get it in high and reverse . If you can then adjust the linkage .
92 cavalier 31 clutch has to be on floor and still shifts hard
Located on the carb look at your throttle linkage. Under the throttle linkage but on the same plate you will see another rod that runs down behind the engine. This rod also is used for your passing gear and runs down to the trans. You need to adjust the travel on this rod. If it is shifting late adjust it longer I belive. Try it and if not go the other way. Good Luck!!
Thats fairly easy to do. First block the wheels so the vehicle will not roll. Put the transmission into neutral. Go under the car and on the drivers side of the transmission pan you will see the linkage. Remove the pin holding the linkage to the transmission. The linkage should slide in and out of the transmission shift bracket easily. If not loosen the nut on the linkage and adjust it until the linkage slides in and out without binding.
Replace shift linkage Replace shift linkage
Adjust the kickdown
Adjust your shift linkage or just pay attention to how many clicks down you are going
