If I put it in neutral it die and when im driving it and shift gears it bucks alot. I cleaned the idle control valve and changed my fuel filter but no changes. Also I dont know if its realted but when I press the clutch in it revs up my rpms? Im not a car guy and dont have much experience.

Have a pro scan for codes and check fuel pressure first it may have a wire in way of clutch operation or vacuum line coming off

Ok 1 more thing I have a friend that came over and adjusted the idle and tured it up and now with it up it dont stall when I come to a stop but still bucks when im driving. I dont have the money to have a pro look at it thats why im on here to see if its something I can maybe do.
