    Tach gauge "sticking."

    unfortunatly it sounds like the servo back there is going bad, the sensor part of it anyways. If your car is running fine then it is somewhere between your computer and gages or the gage itself.

    Starting car after 3 weeks of sitting

    OIL CIRCULATION simply hold down the gas pedal all the way and crank it for 10-15 seconds and the stop, let go of gas and then start her up. The eec automatically does a fuel cut when you hold down the gas all the way durring cranking, this will get your oil circulating b4 you start her up.
