have a mechanic check the temp of the exhaust with a laser temp gauge. he should be able to tell you if the temp is normal.

i still think that you have a timing problem. you are having combustion happening outside of your cylinders causing it to backfire and misfire and whatnot. i am not reffering to the timing of the ignition. what i am thinking of is valve timing. either that or your spark plugs are not firing like they are supposed to and are not completely burning off all the fuel in the combustion chamber.
