Thanks for the info guys!
Thanks for the good info! The title says VX, so I guess it's legit. I got a bunch of receipts with the purchase that shows someone was trying to figure out what was wrong. Its got a new timing belt and water pump, new plugs [ZFR5F-11 maybe if I'm reading it right], PCV valve, distributor and rotor, plug wires, fuel filter, valve cover gasket, outer cv boot kit, alignment and A/C rebuilt to the tune of $490. All of this in the last 18 months! One receipt says that the car was stalling and it looks like the distributor work fixed that. I think that the previous 2 owners threw money at it trying to figure it out and just gave up. The lady I got it from had it for less than a year. There is no valve clatter or rattle that I've noted and I do hills at low rpms almost daily. It's still getting better mileage than my scooby outback, but I won't be satisfied until I get more out of it. I replaced the TPS and I really couldn't see how one calibrates it. Its a piece of plastic with no discernable user tweakable parts. Not many options on the positioning of it either. I just slapped it on there. If you know of any calibration data please pass it on. I'm going to try to find some VX rims, they're lighter right?
