thanks everyone--looks like i need a new linkage--or at the very least i need to get to the linkage and see what's up--maybe lube it, etc -- i've never taken off the dash--or those that got at the linkage from the firewall area, how?? also--if i need a whole linkage, is this all one unit (motor and everything)? and if so, is this going to be another used part / hunting it down kind of thing?
