Occasional Idle Issues
Let me try to explain this to the best of my ability haha.
So I have a '88 GXL FC manual and every once in awhile when I start up the car, it tries to die unless I put my foot on the throttle a little, to keep the rpm's up until it will idle safely on it's own.
Whenever it does this, my voltage gauge tends to raise and drop a bit until it idles by itself. I need to pay attention the next time it happens to see if any of the other gauges "flex".
The car starts and run smoothly whenever this doesn't happen, but every one blue moon, this happens.
So my question is, what is potentially causing this?
Is this something that I should be concerned heavily about or is it something I can easily fix?
