Hello all,<P>After moving the ignition wires around and replacing the old brittle plastic ignition wire holders, my Volvo now backfires once when I first start the engine cold.<P>The backfire occurs about one and half seconds after the engine has been running, so it is not immediate. Also, when the engine is cold acceleration is really really sluggish. Once the engine is warm the acceleration problem goes away....<P>I have checked the firing order on the distributor to the engine; everything seems to be in the right order... 1, 3, 4, 2<P>Could I have messed up the timing somehow?<P>Thanks<BR>-Eric
