laugh if you want, but Im totally serious, Im not sure what is wrong, I think the injectors are bad, they are original oem. Fuel comes out from the filter when I turn the key, I know I am getting good spark. Not sure whats next. Timing has never been messed with. SOmeone told me that 240's jump timing alot, how do I know if it is in time? Thanks for any help tips or advice.
