Help!!!

well the filter troubles are over, I now have to check why the dash gage does not work all the time. I have a few other questions as well.

1, I replaced the rad with a new one and I notice some smoke from the rad now, It is not leaking anywhere, could this be just because it is new?.

2, whenever I start her up she will rev real high around 1700-1800 and only after about 15 mins come to rev normally around 700-800...is there something I would need to adjust? I don't think it is a cold start issue.

1- The somke could be fine. If it is brand new then it might just be burning off some spilled coolant.

2-check your cold start temp switch. It might be bad.

I will check that, thanks....something else, I was filling washer fluid and noticed that it all leaked out, how do I get to the washer resoiver?...I checked the TSRM and could not find it.

ok. I went to check the codes on the car as it is idleing way too high still, I could not get the codes, in the little diagnostis box where I have to jump the terminals, is there supposed to be grease on all the contact points?

ok...I finally managed to check the codes...this is what happened....two blinks and then a pause, this pattern keeps repeating...what does it mean?

i am also having a cold start idle problem, so keep us posted, mine goes to around 12 or 1300 though.

your thinking its '2', maybe its '22'. water temp sensor signal. no idea what that could mean...use that link the guy above me gave you, then go to the TSRM in that post and browse around.

as long as you know its working, it should be fine...however, gauges == really important, so keep looking around.
