2005 caravan rough idling only when in gear (D or R)

2005 Chrysler Gr. Voyager, EDZ 2,4L DOHC engine. It has a very rough idling when in gear (drive or reverse), and sometimes it stops when waiting for green light. Idling is OK when in neutral. Also, when accelerating at low RPM (below 1800 RPM) in OD it fails . Has to force a down-shift with 3-position.

    I have fixed it! There was a rupture in a small rubber part connecting the vacuum line (to speed controller etc.) with the intake manifold. I replaced it with two pieces of fuel hose and a couple of hose clamps. The original part seems to be too soft / weak.

Lack of power in accelleration

Also check the vacuum system. I had a broken vacuum rubber piece at the top of the intake manifold on my 2.4 EDZ engine in my Chrysler Gr. Voyager . It caused low engine performance and unsteady idling.
