You pulled out the engine to replace the alternator and the timing belt? Im not really sure on the work you did? Did you change the timing belt? Did the car run fine before you did this work? Maybe the timing is off a tooth

Re: 96 Eclipse Rs 2.0 Non-turbo
Na, i didnt touch the timing we just checked and made sure that it wasnt off at all! i just put a serp and alt belt on! I took the engine out of a automatic 96 eclipse and just put my tranny on it. thats all i did and idk whats causing this backfire. do you think the EGR valve would cause this? I was also looking at my car and i dont have a EGR silonoid...

EGR won't make a difference like that. I've had defective, broken, and EGR deletes on numerous cars and never had problems with backfiring. It recycles the exhaust gas back into the intake. Wouldn't cause a problem like that if it wasn't working or whatever. Quote:
