Right around 750 for me. The chip makes it run rougher, but I really think it's because the belt is worn (timing).

What does it all mean? Well, I gave you a 5 because you registered on my B'day according to your profile. Looks like someone gave you a 1 previously. Will need more 5's to bring it up. BTW - would you be so kind as to return the 5-spot?

{I do hate spam, but that isn't really part of my email address. Remove the string ?HatesSpam? from the email address ?BobHatesSpam@blaylock.to? to email me. No advertisements. Spammers will be dealt with very harshly!} ------- Moonlight Blue 1996 Mercury Mystique GS , Zetec engine, ATX. No mods. (Well, OK, one mod. Before I got rid of my previous car, a 1994 Tempo, I swapped radios. I liked the Tempo's radio better. That counts as a mod, doesn't it? I also kept one of my Tempo's wheels to use as a spare. I hate those stupid ?compact? spares that come with modern cars. Does this count as a mod? If so, I guess I have two mods. Replaced burned/melted blower switch and connector on 19 February 2002 with a 1P3T toggle switch from Marvac and a Molex connector from Rat Shack; I guess this now makes three mods.)

Get a Coil Pack from Accel and your RPM will stay at 900rpm.. That with the air on and the heat on too. I have it in the LX and the Zetec. One of the best mods I have done. Take a look at http://www.jegs.com/ It 54.99 part number 110-140018 and you will like the way the car run after the install... if you don't let me know and we will get you MSD or something.

Thanks Drumnut.
I went and gave you a five.
Funny thing is I play drums too,
although I haven't in any sort
of band for about 10 years now.
Sold my kit too.
