Okay. Just to fill you guys in. I have 97 dakota CC v6 auto with fans,
pullies, ported TB, relocated IAT, K&N gen2 alike intake, upgraded 2.5"
y-pipe, soon to be headers, dynomax catback, jacob's omni ignition, and 180
degree stat.
I just changed the timing chain and I KNOW for a fact that it's aligned
right, because I turned it over to TDC, and lined the distributor and
everything up.. Anyways. I've been noticing that after I start up. (within
5 minutes) If i drive. Sometimes it will stumble and seem to "misfire" and
the RPMs will just rev up like 1/2 the cylinders aren't firing. basically,
it performs like crap. If you give it gas in the time of the stumbling,
it'll backfire. What gives? My automatic starter has been acting funny
lately too. It'll blink the lights and not start, whereas it used to blink
the light and start. Can anyone shine some light on my problem?
For maintence. I've been doing routing oil changes with synthetic fluids,
changed the cap and rotor. new plugs, The engine hasn't been neglected. What
is going on? O2 sensor screwing up?

PS. scanner is picking up zero codes... timing is 16-17 degrees at idle
(pretty stable now!) distributor "fuel syncronization" is set to "0" with a
snap on scanner.. I just don't get it.?!?!?!?!
