My car runs like crap. It backfires sometimes and idles too high or too low. Recently i have changed the timing belt, have the valves adjusted, changed the primary 02 sensor, changed the fuel filter, new plugs,wires, and a battery. I don't know whats wrong? And the car doesn't throw any cels. Some one told me to try and check my ecu but i have to go and find one that i know is good. Does anyone else have an idea? I know it could me a lot of things but any imput would me nice. Also do you know of any tests i could run on the car that would be cheap?

it you ever install Nos or did the previous owner did?

did you do a compression test on it?

ramz7887

no this car was stock when i got it

ramz7887

the car has 110xxx miles If the compression was down how do i fix that?

ace1875

is it misfiring?

first do a compression test on it, then find out which cylinder the problem is from, i remember i had the same problem in my old 98 EX (may it R.I.P)

since you replaced the wires and plugs you might as well replace the cap and rotor... could be the problem
