Default Jumping Time

Would a car that jumped time have just a little fire on turning over, or
none at all?

Were those random words or just from the translationally challenged?

I tend to think the latter -
To paraphrase, if the timing has changed (timing chain or distributor???)
will you get it to kick over.

Answer is, depends on how much the timing has changed. Sometimes you are
more likely to get a backfire out the air intake.

The ignition timing(which isn't adjustable on Saturns - no distributor) is a
different thing then the physical cam timing.

True true.
