anyone have any reasoning or ideas why my car is sputtering in every gear? i can go max 30 mph in 3rd and i have to rev real high to start up in 1st otherwise the car will stall. i hardly got it back to my house. she starts up and idles fine though. anyone know why? please help.

umm... hows your compression? I thought that if you had to rev it really high to get going that meant you had a dead rotor.

I hope this isnt the case for you, good luck!

 

me too. i am not sure about my compression. ill check adn let you know.

 

okay she works again. it was the timing, and we adjusted it back to stock but it dries slower now.
