Believe the bulletins recurring theme is is make sure there is absolutely no wear in the bushing and pivot points anywhere on linkage. The early rubber bushings were replaced with steel ones. No detent wear and properly adjusted linkage so detents at shifter forks in trans fully engage. Several have mentioned light engine oil to lubricate the lower selector arms and mechanism via the small hole in steering/gearshift column just above where they nest is needed also.
