Rough idle
Ive had my 87 TII for almost two weeks and it hasnt given me any real problems.
Tonight when I was on my way home from work, the car drove normally. I let it sit like always before turning it off to let it cool down.
About an hour later I go back outside, turn it on and back it up about 10ft to take some night pics of it.
While im sitting in the car getting ready to take a pic of the gauges the car starts to idle funny.
The idle was jumpring from 200-500 rpms and it felt like the car was going to die (But it did not). At the same time the oil pressure gauge was jumping from 30-55ish.
Anyone have any possibilities?

No i hit the throttle a few times, it would idle normal for a seccond and dip back down to 200-500rpms.
I also held the rpms around 1000 for 30 secconds or so and that didnt do anything either.

Yea this is with the engine at running temp.
And I have not tried to adjust the idle.
I have the FSM (or the Haynes book?) so I geuss i'll try that.
*Edit* Thank you by the way, I really appreciate it
