It's really hard to guess with such limited info but if your exhaust is glowing red, that's not a good sign & shouldn't be driven.

If you don't have the means to diagnose & fix this problem then you should take it in before you ruin your car.....

Someone might be able to help you if they could decipher what you are trying to say. Learn how to spell properly.

I believe it may be the timing chain/belt has skipped a notch. The same thing happened to my mom's 1973 Gran Torino. The timing chain had skipped 3 notches, it would only run at high RPM and the exhaust was glowing red due to the ignition happening late.
