over the last 2 week holidays i set 3 days aside to do the manual conversion, with some added help from my mate. its all in and all good, however just have an idel problem, the car idels ok for a few moments and then drops low low, just like its about to stall. it was ok before the manual, and yes i have pluged the vacume hose from the auto, have any of u guys had this problem, or do i need a manual computer, or do i need to short some extra wires. just a dog to drive

check your connections to the TPS, and then re-set the idle speed.
