This happened when I was at the track this weekend. I had the key in the
start position, engine off, and heater turned on full blast. I left it like
that in the staging lines and went to talk with some fellow D's. When I came
back my girlfriend said the "check gauges" light came on and she turned the
dak off. I turned it on and it struggled to crank, but it did start. I would
change your battery, I know I will be switching to an Optima battery soon,
just because of all this talk on the Daks battery's being crap. I already
have 33,000 miles on it, so it should go out soon.

Ok this afternoon I walked outside climbed in my Dak and went to go crank it
up and low and behold it would turn over but not idle. I have a 98 v6 auto.
Well I borrowed my parental units Accord (and that little sucker scoots)
came back from what I had to do and it turns over after a little argument
and idles. When I first put the key in and turn it the clock was flashing
and after a couple of attempted starts and use the gas to egg into turning
all the way over the Check Gages light popped on. Any ideas on what the hell
this could be?
