hey i have a 92 240 with a 95 motor and it ran ok 2 days ago. well me and my bro 2ilvia did a switch a roo and changed spark plug wires. then he had the great idea to switch dizzys and that led to a chain of events. his car and mine
well we both messed around with the timing and i got mine to work fine. well then he feeds me this info and i try it and then my car is junk. it starts and idles fine for 2 seconds then the idle drops and my car goes bleh...now 10mins before it did not. i had the car on for 5mins and it was fine. now ive messed with the timing and no matter what it keeps dying unless i give it gas. then after 3k rpms its fine and the car is alive. now i have no emissions just idle control stuff i also switched mafs nothing changed. well thats about it ill add more as i remember.
