HOW TO FIX A SLOPPY SHIFTER for cheap!

Ever have a car where the shift knob goes all over the place? This car was bad- the neutral throw had the shifter going from the drivers seat to the passenger seat. It's most likely why the clutch was going out when I bought the car- ppl were test driving it, starting out in 3rd.......... idiots.
The older a car is, the simpler the mechanics of it- here is how I fixed the linkage on my Mazda, FOR UNDER $15!!
Many other cars have similar setups; save yourself $$ & do it yourself- enjoy!
