The car is a '94 3cyl. with an auto transmission and "all electronic ignition". I've just noticed that distributor cap is "upside down" from
the diagram shown in the Haynes manual. In other words, the wire
from number 1 cyl. is at the top rather than the bottom or rotated
180 degrees. Could this account for the vibration at idle in D while
stopped and in R ? While in N or P it seems ok.
Acceleration is good. A transmission has been discussed in another
thread. Any thoughts? Thanks

I'd don't think the car would run if #1 cyl was not at the top.
