Sorry for my english

When inloaded(e.g. Neutral on gearbox) engine works roughly?
Catalyzator is cutted off.
Also when touching accel (engine were inloaded) engine loose power for 1/2 sec? If in this 1/2 cluth clamping together in this moment engine goes down ;o(

While riding engine works wery well ;o)

Could ity be your spark plugs? Or possibly fuel delivery. Its strange how it works well when it in in gear. Hmmmmmm, Im not sure, dude. Maybe your Oxygen (o2) sensor is bad.

Its likely to be your plugs, wires or distributor cap. Have those checked out. It could also be your 02 sensor.

same thing was happening to me, mariano remember my ruff idle? well i changed the intake bellow. the tube that goes into the intake from the afm. and it fixxed it. mine had a few cracks in it that werent visible. spray some car cleaner on the tube. if it makes your engine rev funny then it might have a leak in the tube. take your intake tube off and look at it. you might find a few cracks.

mine was doing the same thing. it was idleing funny when in neutral and it ran with out the funny idle in gear.
