Subject: 3.9 time problem
IP: Logged

Message:
I have a 96 3.9 and am having something sorta weird going on with my ignition timing.

it has had the death flash on it from the previous owner so its timing is usually retarded quite a bit and holds steady but then the engine stumbles or whatever you wanna call it very brief and the timing is advanced to almost +3 degrees then returns back to normal. anyone got any ideas what would cause this. my timing chain is fine it just got replaced last month.

its rythmitic(sp?) too and predictable. nothing random.
