Today I drive the '89 (stock) to do some commission, the temperature outside was around 100C. After some urban traffic the temperature gauge was little over 105, went on the highway and speed up to 60mph, and the temp was still there. I check water oil and all was ok.
I went in a store and park it under the only tree left , after probably 30 minutes I came out, and it did not want turn it on, I try, try, but nothing. Luckily I had wit me a gas can, so I put some gas in the carburetor, and it started. The temperature gauge was fine too and did not moved. Drove it downtown and up in a hill I notice it will not shift down when I floor the gas pedal. When I stop, it shift first, and shift up regularly, but when I'm driving it will not shift down.
This evening I turn it on and it started right up, but the battery gauge was before the last withe bar (after this there is all red bars and 18). It never was there, usually it was below. I drove home and still it did not shift down. A the traffic light when I saw the battery gauge fluctuating, until under the 13V bar. At some point on the road the headlight was making less light, and also the battery gauge was down on the scale. But it came back up after 10 seconds, also the headlight.
I don't know if all those three are related or not, but any ideas is welcome!
