on the way to work today i saw my fuel gauge slowly going towards empty like i had a quarter sized hole in my gas tank. i kinda freaked out. then i realized i had been driving in 70 degree weather for half almost half an hour yet the engine mysteriously had not managed to warm up all the way? factoring in the random jumps from the rpm gauge, i determined theres some crazy wiring problem. if i hit the brake the rpm gauge shoots up to like 3k and alot of the needles are just dancing. does anyone have any idea whereabouts the problem wiring might lie? i really dont like driving around on fake empty.
