just got a rx7
just got a 87 rx7, 5 spd, silver, with red interior, 1.6k and 117k miles
the car seems to drive pretty nice, starts right up,
but i have a few questions
what rpm is it suppose to idle at? it idles around 650rpm, shouldnt it idle higher?
when i rev it, and when it drops from 1000rpm to 650rpm, there seems to be knocking from the passenger rear, what could i look for?
how can i tell if my 5th and 6th port is opening? which solenoid is it?
also, 2nd gear is louder compare to the other gears - is that ok?

750 is normal idle rpm. i aim for "that area."
not sure about the knocking. sounds like its bad, though.
not sure about testing aux ports, honestly.

i think the knocking is from the metal banging or motor/transmission mounts?
how much are those???
