4000 -5000 ????

DUDE!!!!!..... 4000-5000!!!...... I think you mean 400-500RPM. Cheeck your belts, especially the one connected to your alternator. When you have a lot of things going at once (headlights, radio, wipers, rear defog, etc) it draws a lot of power. Check to make sure they're tight.

haha....yeah i mean that...lol! im not great with engines...as u can see... <BR>k, yeah i'll check the belts, is that maybe why they squeak in the morning? when its cold? [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

thats better! yeah 400 thats little low.... is it automatic?

Your idle should be around 750RPM in nuetral...Do you know how to set the idle..??<P>Daniel Jones<BR>94' MX-3 RS<BR>Blaze Red

Alright youve got the same engine as I do so it should be set at around 750RPM in neutral turn your ac and fan on high and see what your rpm jumps to it should automaticly set after awhile so let your car run for about 5 min and tell me what it sets at..<P>Daniel Jones<BR>94' MX-3 RS<BR>Blaze Red

k, i'll try that....and no i don't know how to set the idle?<BR>oh yeah and i checked the belts and they are fine....any other ideas?

do u have aim itll be alot easier to tell you how to set the idle than to tell u in here...

I had the same problem with my 92' GS. Turns out the intake had a small hoe about the size of a pin prick [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]
