Manual SC400 Question
I've noticed that if you attempt to slowly (read smoothly) let off throttle in a manual sc400 that it will jerk, and also if you attempt to slowly add throttle it will do the same. Is there any trick to get rid of this that anyone has found? It's obviously the product of a manual transmission being in a car that was never designed with electronics to accommodate it, but there must be a way that one of the manual 400'ers has found to eliminate the problem.

No, I think its an electronic thing. It doesn't have anything to do with the clutch [because I'm talking about when I am in gear fully engaged] and the bushing are a completely different story, although those aren't ideal either. He said he did something with the tps but couldn't remember exactly, but I wanted to check with others who have done it and see if that is safe and what exactly it will do to smooth it out.

I did a 5-speed swap on a civic years ago and ran into the same thing. It ended up being the TPS sensor. It seemed to stick when I would let off or gas it, and couldn't find the happy medium. If I remember right it never read 0 on a meter with no throttle. If I recall correctly I just adjusted it. Just a thought.
