Message the issue myself.

93 NA, just recently started having a slight hesitation issue, and I mean very slight. There is a very light hiccup in low rpms when i step on the gas, otherwise seems to rev out very smoothly. This fall I eliminated the air regulator and cleaned up, tested the solenoids and replaced the connectors on my IACV unit and reinstalled it. Car was having idle issue but after that it was idling better than ever.

The problem, other than the idle stumble, is that now on 2 occasions over the last week the car has died, eerily in the exact same spot, when I pushed in the clutch to make a left turn into my subdivision. Up until this week the car has been running pretty damn well, considering its condition, so I just dont get what has changed in the last week.

I did just recently have my car in the air to put on my winter tires wednesday and at the same time I put in a new reverse switch, which my reverse lights still arent working, but I think that has to do with the fact that i dont think i got it screwed in all the way. Seriously would love to kick the guy in the nuts that made that switch so inaccessible with the transmission in the car. The only other thing I touched down there was the Neutral safety switch and that was just trying to push it out of the way, but as hard and brittle as all those wires were I am not ruling out that I damaged something there. But since i really am not 100% sure of what that switch does on this car I cant much diagnose it.

Im currently thinking something like a vacuum leak that may have just developed, but Im open to any other thoughts on the matter.
