there is a lock nut on the bottom of the shifter. just loosen the nut and should be able unscrew shifter.
Do a VIN search and the VIN will tell you the original options.
First, the tranny has to want to change--second the local library should have a shop manual that you can copy the right sections out of,,, it doesn't have to be the same exact model either as the procedure about the same for them all...have fun...:)
change your transmission fluid and transmission filter if the problem persists then your transmission is most likely no good.
First Identify what transmission you have and get a rebuild kit for that transmission. Second purchase a Rebuild manual for that transmission, should cost about $30.00 Last and most important take your time and follow the instructions from the manual step by step DOUBLE CHECK EVERYTHING

If second is the only gear that does not work, there is an internal failure. The transmission will need repaired or replaced.
you could either have a bad syncranizer or the throw out bearing is up
If you can feel the gear change from second to first when stopping you may need transmission fluids. The transmission could be slipping or going out also. Take the vehicle to a mechanic so that they can see what the problem is.
The baud rate measures the number of times the transmission medium can change its state in one second, which is the number of discrete signals in a given second. Baud rate is the speed of transmission when using modems over telephone lines.
I would guess you are low on transmission fluid.
Release the break for a second then move into reverse. works every time on my 97.
They are the reccomended shifting points for a manual transmission. When you reach 'I', shift out of first, to second, and so on.
