One is the clutch, the other is, I put in a new battery Saturday. I read on here that can change the cam timing if voltage isn't suppled to the car. I wish I would have read that before I changed it!

The engine isn't missing or any other strange sound, any ideas? If it's the cam timing, what is involved with fixing it?

TIA

I think you mean ignition timing, and the only change to that would be the ECU resetting parameters to factory presets. This is not a battery issue...

Thanks, guys, I'll look into the MAF, no CEL, so nothing to go on but seat of the pants.
