Transmission Range Switch and Carb Vaccum Line

[Terra]

Hi Folks,

Very close to having my car back on the road after an engine transplant.

Two final questions for anyone in the know...

Q1:

My car is starting in neutral rather than park so I must have done something wrong with the transmission range switch, what is the correct procedure for installing this? From memory I just bolted it on and indexed through the gears manually on the switch, Maybe that's not right?

Q2:

I have a Vaccum line which comes off around the beginning of the air box pipe / butterfly area, it's a right angled looking one. What and where is this supposed to connect to? I recall a bit of pipe, but I can't find one. Car is starting but idle is lumpy so I think this is related.

Thanks
T.

Ah sweet thanks heaps for that, I didn't realise I needed to manually put it to neutral!

I didn't either... I didn't read it, just posted it...

My car's a standard...

(you should a swapped the stick along with the engine... Lol)

Funnily enough I was at the local pick a part the other day and they had a ds-de 2.0 manual there, front end smacked, the loom, Ecu and box were all there so it crossed my mind.. Unfortunately I'm moving nearly 1000kms away in 2 weeks time so no time for that sort of project!
