Hey guys! First off the car is - 1990 vitara swb sift top. G16a, stock (beside extractors in the mail bag) 310,xxx km's
Pretty sure my timing is out? I'm guessing. I have no clue on how to check this. I've read about timing and degrees and a dizzy but it's all over my head.
When I start the car in the mornings or when ever (from cold) it runs like a bag of shit. Does not hold a good idle and I hear ticking sounds from the motor. (Oil does get replaced every 5000km) and is good to the line. The car shakes a bit too. It's not motor mounts as I changed them. Who's in perth and knows there stuff? If can get it all running Micky mouse ill give you $100 =]
