Just was coming home from work and my car just cuted of i heard a strange noise like piston in suction I did not hear and bang of piston touching the valve or anything just i noticed before that the tappets where getting a small tick as I start my car at work to come home, the starter seems to turn the engine fast as was there no compression and checking the timinig was bit out so i tried to set timing as good as i can but the car still the same. when i am trying th turn the key just the starter and some point i can hear a single backfire, i think if timing was a bit of you will continue hear backfire ?
What could it be ? maybe ignition or fuel. who can I check them both easily ?
Sorry for composition but tried to give a good description :- engine x16xe
