    Cruise Control wos

    ive noticed on my 91 lx sedan that when i engage the cruise, the car slows down bout five miles an hour then picks up back to where i set the cruise. its an auto trans. my bro in law just bought a 91 10 anniversay 5spd and it does the same thing. is this a problem or normal operation???

    Mine does this... I usually hold my foot in the position where I set it for a few seconds after engaging it and that seems to help. If I set it on a hill I usually have to dial in a bit more accel to get it to maintain speed. Overall, I find the system is a bit crude and ya just have to mess with accel and decel sometimes.

      Yeah, keep your foot on the gas pedal in the same position until the cc pulls the pedal away. Even then, it'll dip a bit in speed, but w/e. Just trim it up with the accel and you're good to go.

        When using the CC buttons to accel or decel, I find using quick successive taps works best in adjusting your cruising speed. If you just push and hold, there's a delay before the car starts accelerating, and then when you let go, sometimes it'll take a second too long to stop accelerating past where you wanted it to go. If you just tap the buttons, (like tap tap tap tap tap) you'll have better control.

        And x2 on leaving your foot on the pedal for a second or two until the cruise engages.

          I guess that with our old CC units, that the bellow takes a little bit of time to build up pressure enough to hold the speed.

              Double tapping the Dec. makes your speed drop 5mph at least mine does lol
