So since i got the mazda back on the road, while i drive the car i will get this bouncy oscillating idle. This only occurs in neutral with the clutch let out. If i push in the clutch, the bouncy idle settles down to normal instantly and will not rise. Car runs amazing and i just installed a new neutral safety switch today thinking that it would help due to the other being sheared off during the diff swap. I got the codes read and and it still says Park/Neutral switch pending. HELP LOL
 
You sure there isn't a vacuum leak somewhere? That causes all kinds of idle issues
 
Absolutely. The vacuum leak goes away after clutch is depressed? It had to be tranny related I figured out the info given was incorrect. Upon replacing the front switch on tranny which was neutral safety switch my reverse lights started working...so I'm gonna drain and try the rear
