Question
Can you tell me how to adjust the neutral switch, I currently have to start the car in drive, also any idea where I can find a picture and parts list as I think mine has been shade tree modified.

Answer
The original switch was located at the base of the steering column and was mounted by a couple of screws through slots in the switch. You could loosen the switch and rotate it around the column to adjust it. To get printed material i usually go to www.books4cars.com. They have a good selection of manuals for sale.
