    It is right but its got a new timing set maybe that has something to do with it. The marks are lined up but like I said could be wrong timing set. But its all been just a big headache and I'm tired of putting money in it left and right for it to MAYBE be right this time. So I'm just going to let it go. I hate it but It's the best thing for me financially.

    Jeez man that really dose suck to hear but i am about in the same boat as you I had a transmission put in mine about a year ago and now the struts are shot it needs tires i know those are maintanence issuse but now the car is acting all sorts of goofy like in over drive the RPMs go nuts dropping and then coming back up the car jolts back and forth its beging to piss me off. So i understand your frustration.
