Acura Integ Rs 1990 problems

[jonjoshcb]

My car has about 341,000 miles and is it normal for the car to take awhile to warp up. Like about 5 minutes. Also when im in a comp[lete stop my cars starts to shake. like rumbleing sounds and shaking. Very annoying! i put it on N so the shaking kinda stops. Anyone have an idea what causes the shaking?

my 90 kinda has the same prob. takes forever to warm up and forever to defrost. sometimes when I hit a red light the rpms will rev up and down. I tightened my throttle and it fixed it for the most part but it is a temp fix. it just sounds like the car is trying to die. what are your rpms at when you feel the shake?

 

[jonjoshcb]

Yea takes a long time to warp up and defrost. My Rpms would go up and down pretty fast. Its on 1. It always shakes when im at a complete stop.

yeah when I bought it 2 weeks ago it had a radiator leak. just bought a racing radiator and a cold air intake and she feels better now but I am far from done. I am making sure she runs while I save up for the engine and all of the fun goodies that come with it.


Welcome BTW

it's not a bad place here. there are some nice people. yeah just little by little when you get a chance. make sure all of the maint gets done and you might just need a full tune up.

 

[jonjoshcb]

Yea its not that bad. I should have done this sooner haha. Do you know any places that has tuneups?

 

[unvmy98ls]
