	Sounds like the timing is retarded. __________________ "Did you get my e-mail?" - "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place" - George Bernard Shaw, 1856

	How many miles or Km on the engine since overhaul? Have you done a compression test? Does this meet manufactures specification? Engine runs, but may be very worn out. Is it burning oil? ignator __________________ ignator -

	The most probable reason is that the timing is not being advanced. Newer cars, since about 1980 or so no longer have a vacuum advance on the distributor. It is computer controlled, hence the code. A good mechanic can tell you if that is true. If you are going to be Mr. fixit, then find a Chilton's auto manual for your car. The answers are in the Chilton's. I believe it is a problem with your automatic advance of the distributor. __________________ A hand without an arm is a useless tool

	Does this have an OCV (Oil Control Valve)? I think Toyota's have trouble with them. Does a complete oil change help anything? And you also might want to look for a manifold leak. I'm not a mechanic... Just speaking from some experience.
