Sorry to bring this thread back from the dead..I just thought I would update it as I am the new owner the car and found out what the problem was. The timing belt was changed as mentioned by the previous owner, however the shop did not line the cams up properly. The exhaust cam was retarded a tooth which is apparently a common error. I have re-timed the car at this point so hopefully that will solve the problem. I will be firing it up this Sunday and then proceeding to have an emissions test done this coming week.
