    That's not too far off depending on gear ratios and number of speeds. In older days, with a final drive of 1:1, you would run a 1/2 ratio 3500 @70. However my 2006 Nissan Frontier runs a 6 speed and is 2100 @ 70. Worth a visit to a transmission shop to check.

I have a 1995 Nissan Altima and the key will not turn at all. The button you push to get the key out will not move either. The key does go in and out of ignition it just won't turn.
