yeah man we already told you that it had to be timing. I know ase certified mechanics that sometimes screw up timing so it is very possible that even though he thought it was dead on it was still off. Have someone that knows and has experience handle this for you.

yea it was the timming it looks like wen he put the belt on the cams the exhaust cam moved 1 tooth also sounds like he has a vent valve in the 1st cylinder.The guy that had the car b4 was'nt 2 bright he did'nt even tension the p/s belt.Took care of that though.Mounts look pretty shot though.Other than that it seems to b in good sgape.Not bad for 2k
