Thanks. I think that could be the problem with my timing. If its not that, then i am gona take it to the shop. No check engine Light, Runs like crap. Its weird, it doesnt smoke until i give it Gas. At idle it Putts like a V8, and Smells like straight gas. But No Smoke. Whole car shakes at idle. I am out of ideas if this is not the problem.

Those don't sound like balance shaft symptoms. All an out-of-phase BS will do is make the engine shake.

Mine did that as well, check your compression. I ended up melting a little hole in my #1 piston. Also, check the shaft play on your turbo, up/down, in and out. Get back to us when you do those

Old thread: what happens if you take the plug out and the engine is rotated will the plug go back in?
