Default Need help car is not running

I am in desperate need of help to get my s up and running. The problem it has is that it bogs and backfires thru the intake when I hit the gas. I changed the injectors and fuel pump and checked the timing n it looks good to me. Anyone experience willing to come check it out? Im in Kissimmee and any help would greatly be appreciated

Did it just start doing it out of the blue ot did it start to do it after u changed something. To me usually if it is backfiring through the intake it sounds like timing is off

Maybe bad gas or water got in the gas then. U check the plugs to see what they look like

6 months sitting without stabil or another additive to combat moisture will equal bad gas as Nick stated.
