18% is an automatic decrease through the drivetrain.. sticks..depending on the tranny is about 15%. just FYI. you are right on the money though if it's a auto.

do a tune up. plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter. bump your timming up a couple of degrees... the torqu seems way low.. but hp is about right.
