1. remove shifter from transmission.
2. remove C-clip, and pull weight off.
3. wrap shifter from O-ring to O-ring with ONE very tight layer maybe 2 if you have the room, but don't tape over O-rings or else the weight more than likely wont fit over it.
4. I wrapped the rod going through the shaft that fits into the transmission first with thread tape (very tightly) than one more layer with electric tape. (you just want to make sure you dont wrap it too much or else A. the plastic peice may not fit around it.. not to crucial. B. It will bind your shifter inside the transmission, not allowing it to shift smooth.
After all that. reassemble and test.
This is still a fresh install for me but for the past week it has worked great, im not sure as to how long it will last but its not hard to fix.
i would also suggest using a high temp tape if you have it.
Hope this helps some of you.
