The evolutionary behavior of rotating solar models with different initial angular-momentum distributions has been investigated through the premain-sequence and main-sequence phases. The angular momentum was removed from the convective envelope of the solar models according to the Kawaler's (1988) model of magnetic stellar wind. The models show that (1) the surface rotational velocities of the solar mass stars are independent of initial angular momentum for ages greater than 10 exp 8 yr and (2) it is not possible to explain the neutrino problem and the sufficient depletion of lithium in the sun.
