If that's the case your chain is off a tooth somewhere.

The misfire can be because it's timed wrong, needs new plugs, plugs arent gapped correctly, wires are old, bad ground, vac leak, loose connection somewhere, bad/worn rotor and/or cap..etc. can be lots of stuff.

Yah exactly, the dude said the timing looks off because its all the way to the right, but the timing on the gun said its right, and if that is the reason why it is misfiring, me changing the timing would make the missifiring stop? but would i still be able to pass smog with an incorrect timming? i think it says on the hood of my car that its 15. So is there a place where i can get that all checked? or a book that i can follow and just sit down with my car and go over it?
