first of all, put the cat back on.
you need a trans shop to see if there is any adjustment for the throttle pressure in the trans. if not, then it is internal and most likely will have to be overhauled.

Hi Roy,
Gil, the SC400 has two distributors at the front of each cylinder head with a separate coil to operate each distributor, it does not use a coil pack. If one coil fails the engine typically will run but run poorly. I'd look at coolant level, coolant temp switch have seen the idle control at the throttle housing fail on some of theses. Roy is right needs cat. convertor on car. There is a company that independent auto repair shops get their information from, this same information is available inexpensively for people that work on their own cars.. The information is year make and model specific, covering repair procedures, torque specifications, fluid capacities and specifications, service bulletins, component locations, wiring diagrams ect....
