so i was just out running some errands, and on my way home, when i had the A/C on, i would let off the gas, or put the clutch in, and the RPM's wouldnt drop.. so i pulled into a parking lot and shut the car off, then went to start it, and it wouldnt start... popped the hood, wiggled the negative battery terminal, and the alarm went off, so the car then had power.... started fine, drove away, noticed that the Service light was on... ****! and i noticed that the temp guage was at 1/4... which was odd ,cause i was just driving for like an hour, and its hot as hell outside.... got to some lights, put the clutch in to slow down, and the RPM's slowly dropped and it stalled out, so i did the same, wiggled the terminal and it started up and drove fine, till i put the clutch in, then it stalled out again... it sitting in my driveway now... just took it for a test spin, everything is working fine, except that the temp guage still doesnt move... it moves when you turn the car on, it goes up to the 1/4 mark.... but i know its running hotter than that, it has to be.. .i let it r un for 5 mins and it didnt move, and its god damn hot outside
anyone help, before i ****ing drive it to honda and drive home with a civic? please
