Default 1991 Honda Accord EX Automatic - Shifter is tough to move from park

I have a 1991 Honda Accord EX automatic. It is difficult to get out of park. You have to pull quite hard , but once out of park, it shifts smoothly to all other gears. Any ideas what the problem could be? I have heard this is a common problem on 90-93 Accords.

same thing with my 5th gen... but it doesnt give me any problems since im so use to it... but when i shift from park to drive... it takes like a extra second or 2 before it goes into gear...

with my girls newer civic, it shifts instantly into gear the second the shifter hits its mark...

maybe there a adjusting cable or something that i dont knbow about? :\

Look at the trigger mechanism on the shifter.
