My car died last night at 3 in the morning (talk about good timing) it sputters and stalls and is real hard to keep runing but will run if over 3500 rpm if I go below that it sputters and stalls and is verry hard to get running. It backfires out both ends. all my gauges are indicating fine. I played with it for a while this morning and had no luck. I wenk to check the timing and found that with the advance wire disconected it runs ok, like a car with no advance, but it will run and idle. reconnect the wire and it will barly start, the timing is set at 4 deg. the car has run great for 10k miles on the new enginge.

Anybody have any idea what could be wrong?

Any help would be much appreciated

thanks Ryan

Bad distibutor module or bad distributor pickup coil.

I'll try changing out the distributer today
thanks

you say that with the esc disconected it ran fine, i wouldnt rule out the computer.MHO

did you check the ground wires on the back of the passenger head... are they hooked up? i had a similar problem when i put in my headers. i forgot to bolt it up

well I changed my distributer and it is running fine right now
thanks for the help
