maybe you're distributor got off somehow? lol.. I remember mine was off a tooth and it would backfire like crazy

[blacksrjdm]

2nd that^ Mine was running like that when the timing was retarded too much.

It sounds like your car came with the very rare "Tommy Gun" option. At least you got the Public Enemies movie sound track for free!

Sorry for your trouble but I found that video to be hillarious!

Hope you get it fixed soon.

sounds like timing for sure

[Coeur de lion]

Timing!!!!

[s13 iDRIFT]

well me and my friend put it in timing before this video and it was barely drivable, so we had to advance it, now it is like that, and it truley gets annoying, ooh i also took it back to the mechanics and they also put it in timing, ran like doodoo, they said something bout a throttle body. and i was like

-heres the funny part bout this, last night i was driving leaving sonic and it back fired, sounded like a 12guage goin off, so then i was like D*MN!! haha then i see blue lights flyin behind me and i was like ohhh he got someone and then it ends up being me, haha well i pulled over he asked me if there was any problems while he was looking in the back of my car with his flash light, haha and i was like no my car back fires, then he said just making sure you werent shooting guns! lmao, it was funny.

[1990nismo!]

lmfaooooooo goddamn dat shyt was funny..... f***!! your cat must b gone! lol sounds like timin but if you fixed that then id say realli bad compression

[s13 iDRIFT]

ha i doubt it has bad compression, ill do a test and see the results any way! but im starting to think, that when its in timing the distributor can be bad or something along that line,

[xX RB Xx]

honestly i dont think it is it.. but just check it.
