k. sounds similar to mine. i was just curious. thought my cruise was a little low but after speaking with a few other 2.3 guys tne numbers worry me less. thanks sleeper.

Mine has always seemed abnormally low. It has worked for a few years now, I won't start worrying about it until it blows up

mine is actually on the low side of those numbers-i think i have contaminants stuck in the mesh of my pickup tube thou. it was on the highside before i put the timing cover back on(inner-possible dead critters anyone?)
