Default Neutral Safety Switch

Replaced the Neutral Safety Switch on my 75, now occasionally, the starter engages when shifting from Drive to reverse.
Any Ideas ?

Thanks,

Bill

A Could the NSS have slipped out of adjustment?
B Brand new bad switch.

You might want to turn your car OFF in gear until you figure it out.

Thanks for the replies...............
Now thinking, switch adjustment. Makes sense, must be in "start position" when changing through neutral.

Thanks Again, (This place works)
