We have a 66 Charger, ramped up 440. Auto trans. I had a problem a few months ago with the car running for about 10 minutes, then would shut down completly. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then it would start right up again. Finally it started doing it all the time, and would only run for about 10 seconds,then died.. Towed it to the shop, and they seemed to fix the problem. Now the car runs badly, and backfires quite a bit. I messed with the timing on the highway, and got it home, but cant get rid of the backfire. Does ok under a heavy foot, but when I let off, it sputters pretty bad. Do you think I just need to get the timing "Right on " and it will be fine, or do you think something else is up? Put new coil in,ECU,plugs.Electronic Ign. Choke is fine.Thanx. scott
