oh no batman!


okay so i installed my new throttle body and the car was running fine then while i was at work my sisters boyfriend came over with my sister to watch my son and he fucked with something and now my car is backfiring like crazy at idle he swears he didnt touch anything but she told me he was under the hood it starts and it will run but it surges like crazy ive replaced the fuel filter the plugs and checked all the wiring to make sure one didnt get split or anything any idea why shes doing this should i just take it somewhere and have the timing checked? what would you guys suggest

lol hes horrified of me and my brother i checked the firing order changed the plugs i thought it could be the ignition control module but you have to pull the dizzy and ive never messed with timing before so i really dont want to mess with it im just gonna call the guy and prepare to get raped

and its possible hes one of those "ya my hondas slow now but give me 10,000 and a month and ill be running with ferraris" actual quote but hes also a dumbass who knows literally nothing about cars

There is no reason for anyone to be under the hood of my car when Im not around. That is grounds for a serious beat down.

Well, you said you changed plugs & wires, right? You're 100% on the fireing order? You didn't turn/move the distributor? Something isn't making sense...IMO

I'd have him pay for it and then beat his fucking ass after I fixed it. I leave my car at home for 14 days straight in a row when I leave to go to work. Everyone knows not to mess with it while I'm at work.
