I have a plastic press fit connector on the end of my shift cable that connects the cable to the transmission shift lever. It came off and now wont stay on. Is there a locking ring or piece or does it just press on? How would I change the plastic piece, get a whole new cable. I put a bolt with two nuts against each other to hold it now, but the shift action feels a littel weird.

 

i have had this problem before and was told by someone wanting to get more business that something was supposed to be there although i had never seen anything. so i just changed the shifter to b&m because i went through 4 factory cables thoughs pos plastic pieces just kept breaking with regular use?????????
