Make sure the fuel pump as the old one. And I have seen bad new fuel pumps that were no good out the box new. Start with fuel pressure. Back firing means timing is off a lot of the time of the fuel pressure is good
Where is the timing belt
But if u said it was running . Before u may have left something unplugged it didn't just jump time sitting there
Thr water pump was replaced prior to the raditor hoses n fuel pump when the 97s get hot an the A/C code comes up on dash does ur heads always crack?
They could have just told u that to try and get ur money but if the car got hot it could have cracked the heads. I would guess a blowed head could make it not run as well

Sounds like a a timing issue - did you mess with the timing belt or move it?
No I didnt the mechanics said that also but i dont get how it would jump time..before sometimes it would bog like it wasnt gettin gas or the catalytic converter clogged but i keep reading about this fuel pressure something
U said they replaced all sorts of parts including water pump. They may have disturbed the position of timing belt and that is critical for spark plug firing at correct time. If timing is off, engine runs for sh--, mileage is poor, backfiring occurs, no power, etc.

I have had this problem with my 98 aurora and have replaced all the same components. Temp gauge routinely shows 200 on highway (Fine) but in the city in stop and go will get to around 245. I installed a switch to manually turn on the cooling fans by connecting the ground to pin 86 in the relay for the fan(s). Otherwise the fans will not turn on to 245. This fix works but would like to know an actual solution.

Remove and raise upper hose at thermostat end and remove lower rad hose.
Fill rad with a hose and watch for flow from bottom rad hose and/ or bottom rad hose connecton.......water should fall though rad easily.
Honda rads are cheap.....any restriction....replace rad.
Remove thermostat....fill thermostat housing with hose and watch for water flow at bottom rad hose.
Flush good.
Remove heater hoses.......flush back and forth until a good flow is present "With heater control set to hot" if no or poor flow....replace heater core.
Stop leak can plug everything.
Also.......not likely causing over heating....but ....at your mileage,if you do not know if the timing belt has been changed.....CHANGE IT NOW!
Water pump is optional at this mileage.
Testimonial: "thank you for the very clear, step by step instructions for diagnose and remedy"

hit the key five times without trying to start, just bump the starter, after the fith time turn it over and it should crank
