I bought a 1992 honda but i changed the motor to a 1995. When I first drove the car it drove like a baby. Three weeks after the swap the car starts loosing it good performance. It started to pull back when I drive it. It sound like its idleling on its own. Something like vroom vroom, and its poping from the mufler

Hi beboskie25, If the car had been running well, it should not be a timing belt problem. Get a timing light to check the ignition timing and if it is not far off and adjustable, no problem with timing belt.
