Manual shift stuck in neutral gear

Gear shift changes fine, just like it should, and clutch works great too. But I try to put in in 1st thru 5th or in reverse, and the shift moves, but the car won't. It acts like it's trying to move forward but then stops like it's catching on something and bounces back. Just put new gear fluid in it so that's not the problem. Clutch is fine. I was told it was the ******. If it's the ******, where can I find a transmission rebuild kit for cheap?

    It's a V6, non turbo. I'm an 18 year old girl just starting to learn about cars. My dad has been working on mine, I just bought it a month ago. I don't know much about it yet other than it's a 1985, V6, and non turbo.

SOURCE: 1991 Caprice No reverse. Moves in neutral. All forward gears OK.

What engine? Rear wheel drive ?Sounds like shift linkage or cable out of adjustment slightly. Have a look at where cable or rod attaches to transmission for adjustment. If not sure of what your looking for get back to me with info.

SOURCE: When I drive the car

The Syncro is worn. Fluid will not help. I'm afraid it's time for a rebuild or another used transmission from a junkyard.

1st 3rd and 5th gears are spongy to shift into

Start with the firs post and have those cables and linkage assembly looked at if those are good then what you have is a loose bolt on the transmission that bolt is responsible to keep the gear in place when loose the transmission will do what you described as well nothing more nothing less.

Just recently changed my clutch in my 1995 geo metro. it was working fine. car was tuned up before my long road trip from orlando to nyc. until when i reached sometime in NC, and 4th gear will not...

the shift linkage may need to be adjusted a bit or the shift forks and engaged gears for 4th and 5th may have worn enough that they need to be inspected and fixed.
