i cant check the timing because my car wont idle. :\ and i was thinking it was probably the distributor ... but i dont have a spare to try and see if it works. and i ment to say 6 degrees retarded in my previous reply, but that was when my car was running fine. now ic ant check the timing... i dont think the crank is spinning fast enough lol

called my friend at gm express... he's gonna send a tow truck to pick up the iroc and get her checked out. he told me that i probably bent a rod, since i started to hear a clicking noise comming from my car, but i think thats the fuel injectors making that noise from the misfiring or something. bro... why does my car gotta take a dump on me for christmas? lol the money i was gonna get headers with is gonna have to go to get her fixed... how wonderful
