SHIFT LEVER
- Inspect shift lever position using the following steps: When shifting from "P" to "R" position only with ignition switch ON and brake pedal depressed, make sure that gearshift lever moves smoothly and can be moderately operated. When starting engine, make sure that the vehicle moves forward when shifting from "N" to "D" position and moves rearward when shifting to "R" position.
- If adjustment is required, proceed to adjust shift lever position using the following steps: Loosen nut on shift lever. Push shift lever fully downward. Return shift lever 2 notches to "N" position. (Scheme 88) Set gearshift lever to "N" position. While holding gearshift lever lightly toward the "R" position side, tighten the lever nut to specification. See «TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-156545-S19235586962003072200000). Start engine and make sure that vehicle moves forward when shifting lever from "N" to "D" position and moves rearward when shifting it to "R" position.
