I dont know wtf happend but I started the car up at the end of the day and it ran fine in neutral

Neutral w/ Clutch Pedal Down = Fine

Soon as U put it in any gear with clutch pedal in it bounces like crazy runs on one rotor as it drops....adding fuel to the idle curve fixes this but requires tons of fuel

Pop it back into neutral...clutch in/out idles perfectly perfect vaccuum

this may be the one thing that pushes me into listing it for sale

please help me guys...i dont know what it is...it has to be some kind of sensor...

local rotary shop over phone says its a vaccuum leak but that doesnt make sense why only in gear does it idle poorly

well i looked at the switch and the little white pluger comes out almost all the way id say 85%...i can pull it a little bit more out than it does on its own....so my question is it really the switch?

- does the switch have to come ALL the way out in order to work?

IIRC, yes.

To be honest mine looked fine, and i wasnt gonna remove it but i just thought what the hell and run testing meter over it ,i soon realised that it was not springing back 100% full length.. check it out brother , mine also didnt idle like a pile of crap as soon as i tried to put it in gear.

Also, check the first/second gear switch. If it goes bad, it will give you the exact symptoms you are describing. It is up on the side of the tranny. On the tail housing.

well, it does it in any gear, like reverse for example
