alright so i took apart my ka24 twin cam 16valve engine to replace the valve stem seals and we successfully replaced the valve seals and we put everything back together (camshafts and the engine in general) at first when we got everything back together it wouldnt crank it would try to turn over but wouldnt crank up all the way... the timing was messed all up so we set the cam shafts to the correct position and the distributor set to the #1 spark plug and had it set on tdc and we got it to crank , it idles now but it has trouble idling and when we push the peddle to give it gas it only revs u to almost 1000rpm, all to gether we replaced the valve stem seals and the top timing chain tensioner, need help to get it started any other timing positions to try? anything? thanks
