HI all,
trying to get my t-bird back on the road. I notice the other day that my shifter has no resistance when shifting. Is the a spring or pin in the valve body that I can change?
any help is appreciated

Yes, there is a flat piece of spring steel fastened on one end at the valve body and the other end rides on the detent cam. It may have broken from fatigue.
Here's a picture, http://news.compperformance.com/Instructions/421000.pdf
unhook the shift rod and see where the slop is .. if the trans is ok there should be a noticeable click and some resistance as you move the shift arm attached on the trans ..
I def thknk the spring in the column is weak going to pop that out to day see if home depot has something.....
so it is a column shift ? i would not have thought so .. i dont think there is anything you can do in the column ..
Think the spring in the trans is tired maybe i can retension it? Any idears where i can buy a new one?
I'd visit my local independent tranny shop and see if they would sell me one alone, or next, visit a Pick 'N Pull and get one out of a trashed c6.
