It has been awhile since I used a ratchet shifter but here it goes.... The little red lever is the reverse lockout lever. Hold that down while shifting to get the shifter in reverse. From there you can shift into park by lifting up on the shifter and moving it forward (I think). If you are in reverse and you want to go into the gears you just pull back to go through the gears.
I hope that this helps out. |

shifter
What kind is it exactly? I have a B & M Megashifter in my Firebird. I know there are a few of them out there so Im not sure if my input will help. BUT, as far as how it works mine has the t-handle along with a levere in front. Full up on the levere to come from park to gears, and then again to get from Neutral to reverse and park.
