ok, first off, my 90 crx si has been sitting in storage for about 2 years.
at first the throttle and clutch cables were sticky, but i fixed those problems. now there are just about only 2 problems left; first one is that it starts up great, but idles at 1500, then slowly creeps up to 2k, then drops fast back down to 1500. i'm not sure what's causing it, and havn't had much time to mess with it. the second thing is that there are gremlens in my electrical stuff
when the car starts, the left blinker light on the dash is 1/2 lit up, then when i turn my brights on, the left blinker goes as bright as it should, and the bright dash light doesn't come on, but the brights do turn on. but when the brights are one, the tach dies 
so something is just messed up with it. i can live with the lights not working right, that's no biggie, but the engine should idol at about 1k.
sorry if there's a post about this, i looked around for a bit, but not forever
thx guys
