I just bought my 91 accord it came with no manual so Im lost.

When shifting from park it takes a great amount of force to move.

Is this the Shiftlock feature?
How do I unlock it?

Hi sumthingwitty,

The interlock would be released when the brake pedal is depresed with the ignition switch turned ON.

If the shift is stiff only when shifting out of park, the common cause is a bent cable end at transmission end or a bad cable.
