Jim, both of my type3 automatics behave like that. I thought it was an
automatic thing as ALL of the other American cars I've ever owned did this
too. What I'm meaning is that they drop about 250 to 350 RPMS when put in
gear. It does make setting the idle a chore though on a type3 with carbs,
don't know if its the same with FI. I really don't have any knowledge of
working on a FI type3 as all my time is with carbs.
