Automatic Idle Adjustment One Person HOW?

A big rpm drop from neutral or park to in gear is 95% of the time your distributor curve.

The other 5% is the converter is tight.
That’s what I was thinking as well. The solenoid appears to prevent that “dump” into drive.

How does the solenoid work (what triggers it)? How does it know when you shift from P to D? Are many people using this? Tuning seems more elegant than adding a solenoid however..
