It seems kind of odd that it would just jump timing w/o one of those things happening. If you already said and I just didn't read forgive me!

    no bent valves, thank god.
    well it was kind of weird, the morning ( yesterday) i was gon take it to the exhaust shop to get it done and looked it, i started the car up, started up, kept my foot on the gas and the rpm wentf rom 2k rpm right back to 0 and turned off and i couldn't restart it, kept just making that tickign sound when you try to start it back up.


    to be on the safe side,m i went to and spent about 250 bucks and bought a new timing belt kit( comes with a tensioner), new water pump, cam seals, and crank seals

    also whats wierd, i only have 67k-70 k on this motor, im suprised it went out this early, imma still have my mechanic ( who is back in town) look at it for me

    i know you love my swagger

    You def. want to have it looked at to make sure. Personally I think that it was those crooked doors that threw off the internal balance of the motor and caused the flux capacitor to over compensate causing the problem.

    just in xase anyone has this problem in the future, i'll post my solution.

    i had to replace my timing belt, only because my cad. convertor was clogged so i had so much back pressure that it threw off my timing.
    so i just replaced my timing belt and ran new custom exhaust pipes.
    if you dont wanna fork over the money for custom piping, just remove your cad convertor, put it so you have a hollow cad convertor or simply get it unclogged Lol

    just wanna say thanks for all of ya'll that helped me

    Cool man glad to see you got it fixed. I still say those crooked doors had something to do with it.
