Hey all. I have a '89 LX-i with about 145000 miles on it, automatic. Wanted to know a couple things.
One, I don't think I've really paided attention to it but when I first start up my car, all the indicator lights go out except the oil light stays on for like 1-3 seconds more, then goes out. Never comes back on during drive. Is that normal? Need a new oil pump? I recently changed my oil and filter.
Two, when I take a corner and let off the gas sometime when I push the gas the tranny shifts down and rpms shoots the hell up to about 4000rpms. Not normal I know, but sign of dying? Tranny is strong everywhere else... taking off, no rpm racing or shifting bad.
Three, this is a stupid question so be gentle. This is my first 3g and wanted to know if it's normal when using the blinker is the D on the dash suppose to blink to? Told you, dumb question.
I'll probably have some more questions later on. Thanks and great board.
