I used to have an 87 200sx with CA20E and it had that problem until i put in a new oxygen sensor. That helped a ton and made a big difference in power as well.

So replacing the O2 Senser made the RPM's drop like a normal car? :) Great I'll try that.

Check with tecdaddy. (a member on the board) I gave him a 87 xe with the same problem with the dash lights. He might have fixed them by now.

have you checked the fuse yet?

Mr.200date not saved · #7

there's a storage switch on the fuse panel

it's the only switch on it, so easy to find

Fuse panel is in the passenger (LHD models) footwell.

This switch is for longterm parking. It kills the signal to all lights and accessories.

That switch has been turned on since I got the car 3 months ago, but the car was sitting for almost a year before I bought it. I've also checked all my fuse's in the whole fuse box all of them are good. Dont know what else to do??????? :dontknow:
