But no I'm not having any idling issues, and yes the car is completely stock.. I am going to take a look at it tomorrow and try to figure it out, I'll also check in the owner's manual and see if I can find anything..
just get the dex-clog crap out of there. Switch to green or yellow and u will be fine.
take the A.I.R. system out of there. its a waste of space.
it says to use the dex cool and nothing else..? and what does the air system do?
by the way while ur at it, chk ur powersteering fluid if that is dirty u need to change the the power steering cooler. its a long tube that runs in the midle of the air fans u know what it is when u see it ,
oh ok thanks, what color is it normally?
It sounds like there's a prob. with the temp. gauge.Quote:

yeah well i check the codes and it's saying Temp Gage Data Out Of Range.
I just replaced one of the sensors and it didnt' affect it at all.. the gage is stayin at 110 degrees still and not moving..
Is there another sensor that might need to be replaced?
Sometimes there's a sensor that controls the gauge, and sends data to the PCM, and then there's a switch that turns on the idiot light. Did you replace the right one?Quote:
