Forget wiring, switches and needless junk.
'Clutch' it off-that is when shutting off key, slowly raise clutch pedal in 1st gear. Let the clutch drag the motor off. Practice for 2 or 3 times and the car won't lurch.
Won't hurt anything.
Exactly. Have the same problem with my 482. Just clutch if off in 1st. I have a low pressure light that come on below 30psi and lowering the idle just isn't an option. It's embarrassing, but works.
