To adjust the shift linkage on a Geo Metro, first, ensure the vehicle is in neutral and the parking brake is engaged. Then, locate the shift linkage at the transmission and check for any loose bolts or worn components. Adjust the linkage by loosening the adjustment nuts and repositioning the linkage as needed, ensuring it aligns correctly with the transmission. Finally, tighten the nuts and test the shift operation to confirm proper alignment and functionality.
Linkage adjust
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.
