Engine Idling changed while driving - '86 420 SEL
The idling of my car increased while driving but changes to normal after few minutes of driving. Any idea......do you think I just need a tune up?

Just taking a guess here, but did the ABS light come on at the same time (your other post) as the idle prob?? I'd be taking a look a the OVP, check the 10amp fuse on top. Might need to replace the OVP also.
You should be able to find the OVP on the firewall 6-8 inches from the fuse box, Silver module with a red top and clear plastic flip top.

You are exactly correct Mike, the ABS light come on at the same time as the idling problem came. I'll do what you sugested. Thanks.

OVP is over voltage protection.
