[QUOTE="Gilaguy23, post: 432055, member: 19498"] Geez I should remember this clearly because I replaced the dist in my 91/2.5 last year when the bushings started screaming. IIRC once the dist is set in place CORRECTLY, the computer sets the timing where it needs to be. If it was set a tooth off from my screw up it will not compensate an run poorly and be extremely hard to start, been there, done that and frankly was shocked I missed the mark cause im OCD about things. How does it idle once started and sitting there? Did you replace the throttle position sensor and/or the IAC? does it miss, vacuum leaks and the like? The missing cat and exhaust leak wont have any influence on whats going on. The cat fell off mine and had a massive ex leak some time ago, but it ran fine until it was fixed. based off what your getting it sounds like the dist is a tooth off. [/QUOTE]
