Brought my car home sunday from the painter, about 30 miles and she ran great the whole way.
Started it up the next morning and it ran great.
Over the next couple days I installed headers and new pypes exhaust system and changed the trans fluid and filter.
Had to jack up the driver side of the engine to install the header and replaced the broken motor mount while I had it off.
Started it up and doesnt want to run, spits and pops and backfires and will sometimes just die like I shut off the key.
I pulled the dist cap off to check if I cracked it and its perfect. Put it back on fired it up and she ran great. Let it run for a couple minutes and shut it off.
Tried to start it again and runs like carp again.
Any suggestions? Did my dist module take a carp?
