Default 91 eb 5.0l

Hi All,
My EB is having a problem with the Transmission Selector, in Park sometimes it wont start until you give the gear stick a gentle little shake, sometimes a couple of times before it will engage the fuel pump and start can anyone suggest how I can fix this little issue please..
Kind Regards

Change the gear selector inhibitor switch on the passenger's side of the transmission.

Hey Blue
Cheers mate I did change that a while ago for another reason, following your advice so that is a new part.
Ya just got to give it a little wiggle and it engages fine, works fine.
I suppose I am wondering if there is some adjustment I might need to do ??
