hello, i have a few questions i would like answered that either i cannot find answers at all, or answers were not very clear


1. My del sol idles funny when first started, only sometimes though, it will rev up to 2000rpm and drop to about 1100rpm and repeat this for several minutes. Is this a normal way for these to warm up?

2. Anyone heard of their odometer working fine, but their tripometer(?) not working at all?

3. the clock in my gauge cluster only works when it wants too, and when it does decide to, it only works if my parking and/or headlights are on.....????????

i know i have a few more, but i don't want an overloaded thread
any help is very appreciated, thanks in advance

Edit:
Also, does anyone know how hard it is to replace steering wheels on the del sol's with aftermarkets?
(not too concerned with the need of an airbag)

 

Cant help you with # 1.But my tripmeter does go up very rapidly, most of the time every mile or two i go the tripmeter goes up 5/10 and after a 20 mile drive i have like 200/300 miles on it lol But i dont know how to fix it. And alot of people's clock's go out, its just getting old and dying out.

 

For #1, check your IACV is working properly and not clogged/dirty. Also make sure there is no air in your cooling system.

 

If you would have searched or even read the first two pages there are probably four or five threads on fluctuating idle, surging idle etc.
Search for steering wheels on this forum.
You'll be surprised how easy installing one is.
The gauge cluster is never a quick and dirty fix... Most times people replace them.
