yes it is manual, sorry for not specifying. as for the vacume lines I'm not seeing them, this just has a cable that comes outa the firewall right by the actual throttle cable, two other symptoms i have are the door lock button doesn't work nor does the hatch release, and the fan has two speeds on and off, not sure if those other electrical issues could be related or not? The sensor on the tranny is plugged in because i've had the car on a lift for the past few days cleaning the heck outa it, I'll be sure to post pics after this weekend.
