Heres the diagnosis
Heres the diagnosis Took my Lt1 to a high performance shop for my constant popping and sluggish driving the owner thinks it is the opti or more specifically the dowel is off, what i am thinking and the guy agrees with me is that the gears that the dowel goes into in the timing cover is chewed up and timing is all off. I doubt it is the opti because i just put on a whole new opti, so chances are the opti is still good but i need a new timing cover, depending on the price im probably going to have them do it because i am tired of dealing with it. But if i were to do it on my own how hard is it to replace a timing cover?
The guy is running a diagnosis on the computer to make sure what the backfires are from, but what he was saying makes sense and it was something i was suspecting.

guy called and said that based on the diagnosis from their computer there is definetly something wrong with the spark through the ignition so he is going to take off the front end down to the timing cover, make sure it is all aligned and then put it back together.
