Put the shift lever in neurtral, put your body weight on the brake pedal, put the key in START, move the shift lever slowly towards R but no more than half way, then move the shift lever slowly towards D but no more than half way. If the starter engages, the rod between the bottom end of the shift lever and the transmission probably needs new bushings. New bushings, but there aren't any old bushings? That's what I mean.
