What others have said.
Missing fifth and reverse is likely caused by the shifter shaft coupling failing. Yours should look different than what Zig posted. You will have the earlier style (unless it was replaced with the newer style at some point)--pictured below.. It will be right above the steering rack just forward of the firewall. It could also be the bushing in front of the shifter housing as mentioned. That bushing is where the shifter shaft passes through the housing that the shift lever is in. You'd have to pull the whole shifter housing off the floor of the car to get at it. Lastly, it could be a failed motor mount. If the engine is rotating more than it should, that can cause shifting issues too.
