Well, anywayt

Not much anyone can tell you about the car at 1200 distance. just like we can't. I don't like what you describe as a miss at idle. What does it do under load. Put it in gear, hold the brakes tight, and give it some throttle. Then if it misses you will really feel it and will have to deal with it. If it disappears under load, you can probably live with it. Make sure that the insulation is not falling of the engine wiring harness, though I understood that to be a problem that started in 92. But I think the $7000.00 CDN is quite high. It would seem to me that $3500.00 CDN should buy it.
