If it works with things loose but not tight, you can narrow things down.
Try tightening different parts to see which ones can be tightened down.

As far as I know, there are no adjustments on any of the shift cables on the
Fieros. That means that it shouldn't matter if you tighten them or not.

On some of the shifters, a pivot bushing has been known to crack and make
shifting more difficult. You might want to tighten things up and look
closely at each of the pivot points to see if you can see something that is
not moving right.
