my car has had a burnt valve for a couple of weeks...theres almost 310,000 miles on the engine. yesterday, it started to "miss" at a stop sign. at the next stop sign, it was cutting out really bad, then it died. it wouldnt start for a couple of hours, and when it did, its smoking horribly out of the tail pipe, backfiring, using an amazing amount of gas, and has no power. it shakes real bad, but it has been doing that since the burnt valve. whats wrong with my car????

That burned valve if able to make the engine shake, loss of power, and smoke out the exhaust probable stress out engine controls too and this is no doubt so expensive to fix it is probably a good time to give up on this car, T
