Its the linkages on the gear stick, look under your car on the passengers side i think... there is a bolt with a bar coming off it, just needs to be adjusted to make the gear selector go to the right spot I will get a photo which will make things alot easier Also if your VL is a an 1986 or some 1987's Its cable selected gear stick and the cable can stretch, look in the technical section there is a good write up about upgrading them
