Hey grandam 455, welcome and thanks for coming over, it was me who suggested this to you on A Body.

Do you have any photos of the car ? Let us have the deatils , 261 or 283 ? You've got a piece of Canadian History there!

The linkage likely needs adjusting. Get a shop manual first and read up on how the linkage works and how to adjust it. My 54 Chevy did that when I first got it. I adjusted the linkage and it was smooooooth as butter.
