I agree with the tune up. What mods do you have done to your car right now?

The Timing Belt hydraulic-Tensioner, is failing.......
[q]A stretched timing belt will affect both valve and ignition timing, which in turn affect intake vacuum, compression, and idle speed and quality. If the wear is severe and the belt jumps timing, the engine may run rough or possibly backfire — or it may not run at all.[/q]
