Hi, since last 2 months I'm having issues adjusting the idle, seems that the more I drive mainly weekends on the following week I have to adjust the idle up again, "losing" 100 rpm per weekend. This weekend the water/oil temperature it's fluctuates 10 degrees in 3-4 seconds, let's say goes from 90 to 72 back to 90. This was stable before.
Oil and waters levels are ok. Any help?

^^^ Good shout!

I'd certainly check/clean earths - battery to chassis - chassis to fuse board/instruments (inside pass. footwell) - engine,,,drivers side engine mount.

Can you point me on the right direction to find the earth for the instruments/lights and on the driver side all the others I was able to find them.
