Whoaaaaaaaaa buddy, slow down. There's nothing wrong with your gauge, the syncrhos are in the transmission and have nothing to do with this. Since the problem only happens when the car is cold, my guess is the fast idle thermo valve, which controls the warm up idle and is on the throttle body. There should be a little port coming off the throttle body, this goes to the fast idle thermo valve.

Since yours is after warm up, definitely check the IACV, and check for vacuum leaks.

IACV for sure, I cleaned mine and It worked.. Took about a week to really take affect though.
