      Wont start rotates backwards

      MY friend has a 94 camaro. The engine will not start and when he stops cranking the starter the engine begins to rotate backwards a few seconds & shoots fuel out the air inlet tube. Some times it does start but is very rough until he gets the rpms up above 3000. I am at a loss as to what to tell him as I know very little about electric fuel injected cars.

      Sounds like the timing chain jumped a tooth or 2, it's ready for a new one.

      NO work has been done as far as I know. He is not a mechanicly inclined individual. Other than wheels the car is completely stock.
