it sounds like a worn out shifter bushing.
climb under the car and look below where the shifter is, there you will see the old bushing to replace

it will use the wole thing. carfull not to stip the bolt at the base of the shifter
kuz then youll have to take the linkage off and the shifter out and cut the damn bolt out. mine was super rusty and i had to do that. what should take 5 minutes turned into an hour and a half irritating project.

yeah, if that bolt comes out nice then you drop that link down and in the bottom of the shifter youll (well should see) a bearing spacer type deal push that out and it should have 2 little o-rings on it. but it prolly wont seeing as thats why your shifter feels like your shifting in a bowl of soup. take the new peice with the o-rings on it and stick it in there. if its a bit rusty and wont slide in take an old toothbrush and knock the crud out of there. hope this helps
