Re: who is the guru the top tech
Well I claim nothing, that being said..........
There is a valve hanging up in the tranny.
With out looking at a diagram it is either a valve in the valve body or
a valve in pump. There are valves in both places that control the pressure.
Which is what I think your problem is, the valve or check ball is not releving the pressure which would stall the car.
Hope this helps..........

Re: who is the guru the top tech
With your foot off the brake, drop the car in gear. If it lurches forward like dumping the clutch on a stick, then the TCC is stuck on.
The low vacuum is also a possible issue. 16 isnt very much. Should be a solid 20 unless there is some terrible issue with the motor. Whats the timing set at? As a test, you might try setting the timing with a vacuum gauge to get the best reading and then see if it still stalls in gear. Some other things that can cause a stall are a stuck or faulty IAC or a vacuum leak at the base of the manifold.
