I'm about ready to sell this car to a junk yard.
Backfires
No Acceleration
I have to gently accelerate or it backfires, it stalls out sometimes. I would never be able to take this car on the interstate. It's a challenge to go 35mph.
You need air, fuel, & spark...but i'm not sure what
The coil is in such an awkward place, near the firewall under the intake...it's not worth my time trying to get to that to fix it. perhaps a spark plug test, compression test is in order?
Any ideas on what I could do?
Things I think it could be:
The cat is clogged
The Injectors are bad
Spark plugs & wires
Coil/Distributor
Vaccum Line
Timing
Fuel pump/filter
Thank you for the replys, I will appreciate them
