I don't know how to upload a video or would.

Start car it sounds good and strong.

About a min in while parked the rpm is at 1000 idle..

Then it starts to go from 1k rpm to 1,100 rpm

It does this steady for a couple minutes then it goes..

From 1k to 1,000 rpm dips down to about 900 ... that is maybe a second to do that then stays like that consistently..

Should I be worried

Sounds like the auto choke turning on and off exactly like it should.

Does it drive fine under load?

Haha, dont be a bitch. Put it to the floor and see what happens.

It sounds like it's running exactly like it should from what you say.

Much cheaper to start with new plugs, wires, and distributor cap than bringing it to a shop.

First time I replaced those things I was 13. Easiest shit to change on a car you just buy. Change the oil and oil filter of course as well.

It's gonna have plugs on coil for sure, a little more pricey than a cap, rotor and some wires. More so if it's a hemi and has the double plugs
