Default Bad Timing, Miss Fire? Please help

94 gsr

I was on my way to work this morning and out of nowhere the car started to sputter and lost power... it went back to normal for about 20 seconds and then has been misfiring since, and at idle sounds very choppy.. I was reading alot of topics posted and alot of people say bent valves? I hope that's not the case, i didn't even get on the car this morning.

I am wondering if it has to do with the shop i went to yesterday adjusting the timing? I had the skunk2 manifold and vafc installed.... do you guys have any idea what it could be? The plugs and wires are 6 months old..

thanks

if you have a vafc tuned and they adjusted your timming that could totally be the reason its actin up. the vafc is striving to achieve the programmed tune and now the timming has been changed from what the vafc was tuned for. i would stick the timming back where it was

hey thanks for the help,

found out, a friend of mine used different injectors, and one was clogged so the 3rd cylinder wasn't getting fuel go figure.
