Hello,I have a 95 geo metro 3 cylinder,5-speed.I just rebuilt the engine with new pistons,rings,and a fresh top end.It idles great when cold,but when it warms up it not only idles crazy low,but also the oil light flickers on and off as well.what could be wrong? I don't see an idle adjustment anywhere on it and it doesn't appear to be consuming any oil either.any help would be greatly appreciated on this.thank you all in advance-Dan :hmm

You could try clicking on swift.hit.bg/3EN and scroll down to R33 - Idle Adjust. On the right are G, L and M. G is Google. I got 'M' to open faster. B-)

It could also be your timing. What is it set at?

Yup..... TPS or Timing, in my case it was the TPS needing adjusted.
