It'* not like you've got a rally light set on the front either, or a coule JBL 1200.1 amps....
Good thing the alt takes about 5 min. 10 if you get a 140 and have to dremel out your ring terminal on the main hookup..

AH HA! The value of an experienced mechanic close enough to see it. Best $40 I've spent on this car.
Things he noticed; #4 plug broken, EGR Valve Cracked.
New set of plugs and I'm looking for an EGR. Let'* just say I lost about 1K mi. of rubber today. That idle is damned good.
Moral: Check the basics. Twice. No, Three times.

The mechanic said it was probably when I broke my front tranny mount. He said it looked like about a months' worth of carbon tracking.
Picked up an EGR valve and 12 L27 injectors for $20 + tax about 20min ago. This thing is smooth, I can't hear the engine at idle, I can't feel it. Kittens can't purr this good. I love this car, And I can't believe you guys stuck with me on the diagnosis when I overlooked such a simple thing...
Too bad it'* raining now :(

My 95 had nasty hissy fits when I had an unhappy wire... Not a dead miss, but it didn't help... I loved it when that Hybrid PCM showed me a Cylinder #4 miss.... It was intermintent too.... LMAO...
Glad you know what the problem is....
