My car has been running a little rough for the past few weeks. I know the car is running rich because it backfires up by the headers and the exhaust smells like gas. I am also get a ticking noise coming from the engine when I give it gas. Is this ticking noise detonation or do I need to adjust my roller rockers? I just gave the car a tune up (plugs, dis cap, rotor). I am guessing this is a timing+fuel pressure problem. Please help me.

Thanks
