lets see:

dash backlight not working: broken rheostat in light switch. You can bypass it with a wire or fit another light switch. (it's the resistor that makes the light adjustable).

RPM: 2200 is not unusual. Silly but true.

Jack points: I try to avoid 2 pole bridges like the plague. They will leave your floor a dented mess. Best thing to do would be to make some slotted bits of wood that fit around the seem under the sills (where the original jack points are), then put the swing arms under those. Shouldnt be too difficult, but trust me it is worth it in the end. I've a couple of cars with dented chassis because of those crappy bridges.
