Re: what makes it bump between gear selections

Best thing to do is start with the adjustments. Condition of the linkage is also a concern. But the primary load you are working against is a leaf spring loaded roller on the manual shift linkage comb. It is internal to the trans. Good news is that if you really wanted more tension it is servicable by dropping the pan. Being able to shift without a pull back indicates an adjustment issue that needs to be addressed. Pick up or download a factory service manual and review the adjustments. First is the shift tube (Section 9) then the manual linkage (section 7) then the indicator (Section 9). After this the neutral safety switch might need adjustment as well (Section 12).
