back story is recent acquisition 1.7 with a kit to 2.0 and possibily has glitch in distributor causing slight miss periodically at 3000 rpm and above while crusing on the hiway
everything was fine and then out of the blue puttering around town had it in second gear and very loud backfire (first time ever) and then several lesser backfires and then blue gray smoke for maybe 30-45 seconds but no further issues since episode on the drive home. not driven since but drove normally after that episode, so what gives? why the abnormal exhaust after the back fire? more evidence of distributor issue? any help understanding situation would be appreciated. |
