Okay guys, I ran a diagnostic test on my car this morning and the Error Code says "Emission Control."
I'll let you know the symptons and known problems my car has. The muffler is mostly detatched. Yes, you read that correctly. One pipe feeding into it is detatched and the other is on the way. I get a check engine light to come on now and again when I downshift to a stop, and when I downshift, there is a very slight shimmying feel to it. It's like the engine can't decide how fast to turn over, but the fluctuation is so slight that you can't see the tach needle move one way or another. I'm assuming that when I replace the muffler (thank god I have a parts car) that the problem will go away, but what problems am I causing for my car? Oh also, my valve timing is lousy. That's all I know. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out.
