Hey I'm just F ing with you guys. Two of my better friends in the Navy were from PR and I got all the low down on the differences and stuff.

So I purposely said something just to joke around. Everybody knows Mexicans are a superior breed!

Id love to see some of you there. Oh yeah, they are only allowing 75 people to enter, so I plan to enter before heading down.

We will be down there. Its about 5 or 10 mins from our apt. Last Saturday there was an auto expo in Raleigh, we traveled up with my z club. I will post the pics once i get them resized.

Yes, a beautiful Copper Red Shinka w 19K. Bad economy = Tom stole the car. Erick was home for the holidays and we went out test driving cars we weren't going to buy.......until.............we found the Shinka just calling my name. Drove a new Mazda Speed 6, I think I scared the salesman a little bit!

What kind of idle problems are you having, is it while actually idling or driving or when you take your foot off and its cruising or getting on it? As much info as possible can help us a little more.
And welcome to the forum and the Rotary community.

Sounds like a grounding issue, or something is along those lines. They could of spliced a wire for power and tried jumping it into something else not knowing what it was gonna do. Also 2000 rpm for idle is way high for a stock port or even a streetport. What mods do you have?
