Hi everyone

I picked up a 1983 australia sprinter on the saturday just been.
The car has the following mods.
7age with larger cams,16v ported head,only recently rebuild,2.5inch exhaust and headers putting out 200hp at the flywheel.

I drove the car yesterday morning and everytime i hit 3000 revs the motor would shutter like it was going to stall. The car had been sitting around doing nothing for six months so after a good 3rd gear carbon clean the car was fine.

I started the car this morning and the engine kept idling at 2000revs >.< after the engine warmed up the idle kept bouncing up and down from 1000revs to 2000revs.

5 hours later i turned the car back on and everything was fine. I have no idea what could have caused this.

Someone installed a newer 86 dash cluster and nothing works. The car is at an auto elect at the moment and he told me today that i need a oil temp sender unit for the dash as my old cluster must have only had a warning light.
Does anyone know if the sender units are fairly universal?
