RE: Transmiission Shift Cable Problem?



John, I don't know if this is your problem or not but years ago I had a 
64 Chrysler 300K and sometimes after a long drive I couldn't get the 
lever into reverse or park. However if I shut it of and let it sit for 
awhile then it would be ok. (Did you try that btw?) I sold the car to my 
niece and one day she called me and said the car wouldn't move at all. I 
had  the car towed to a friend if mine's shop and he dropped the pan and 
changed the tranny filter and put if fresh fluid and the car was fine. 
He said the filter was plugged and that's why I was having trouble 
sometimes getting it into reverse or park after a long drive. Maybe you 
have the same problem?
