car is running crappy
i just installed my new valve seals and stuff like that i had taken my timing belt off when i took the cams out and i have all the marks lined up the way it is in the book but when u start the car it starts right up but the car is running like CRAP just is stuttering and the car wont rev up so i was thinking that i need to either adjust the timing with a timing light or adjust the ignition but wasnt sure do you guys have any thoughts

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ DEF listen to this man! The timing belt isn't the only thing to get messed up when replacing valve seals. Cam timing and valve timing are very crucial, and I recommend starting over. Assuming you did everything besides the timing belt correctly, the least I would expect to find AFTER you did it is a bent valve. Good luck man, valve seals are supposed to be sinchy, but if you don't fully understand engine and cam timing, its really hard!!
