engine sometimes dies when put into gear. 200 82

posted by  someone claiming to be Lawrence on  Fri Dec 8 19:56 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Hey board,

My 82-240 sometimes dies when I put it in gear. The car has the early LH fuel injection. I suspect the vacuum switch, but I dont know.

The engine runs good. I just put on a new timing belt and tensioner two weeks ago. Come to think of it two weeks ago is just about the time this problem started. Any ideas?

Ive checked for loose vacuum hoses and such, but I didnt find anything loose.

Just for clarification, this problem only occurs at idle, hot or cold.

Thanks
