This is a manual transmission car, I presume. If it's an auto, you have a big problem!

Grinding could mean that something inside the transmission is failing. Or it could mean

that your Transmission Fluid is low. OR, it could mean that your clutch is worn or is out of adjustment. Grinding usually means that the clutch is not disengaging properly when you push the clutch pedal, or perhaps, a synchronizer has failed.

Whatever the case, If I were you, I'd get the car to my mechanic and have her looked at.

95 Chevy van g20 it will not shift second?

Check the fluid level. If the fluid level is OK, put the van in reverse on a parking lot and drive it around in reverse. Then try it to see if it will shift into 2nd. If it does shift then, it may be just a clogged filter. If it still will not shift into 2nd you may have to take it over to Cottman and have them check it out.
