Having an issue with the car dying when putting it into gear, and also when I blip the throttle from a stand still.
I was idling in Park, and since the car was running good, I copied/pasted those numbers to the in gear row, and the car wouldn't even stay running - in gear or park/neutral.
In the scanner, when in Park - it shows I'm in 1st gear. Is this normal?

this could be due to a wiring issue. if that tune you have didnt cause it to idle in gear then id say its a table switching issue which would be related to wiring.
in the scanner you should look at 2 channels. trans current gear with should report 1 at park and then look at prndl status which should verify park position.

i dont know how your tuning your idle but if you log desired idle airflow against temperature then pasting those numbers directly into the correct table conditions will give you a faster start on the raf. keep in mind the in gear load will be higher and require more airflow so the same numbers may stall out.

I had something similar happen on a LS swapped Cutlass. SYSTEM>GENERAL>PRNDL EQUIPPED
The car had a dakota digital P/N switch on it. I posted a similar question and the person who replied said it's common with LS swapped vehicles.
