Default Need help with 92 cx hatch

i have a 92 hatch cx. i just changed the timing belt, and the car feels weak.

when i try to drive it, it feels like the car looses power, and im pretty sure the car doesnt need a new clutch. it also vibrates alot

by the way, i bought the car with no timing belt.

also i have changed the spark plug

yea check the tdc mark or even the plug wires, as for the vibration could e a number of things like tire balance, ball joints, suspension etc.

haha uh. dude ur timing is definetly off. if it was right, u'd jus feel the same power as before. cx is weak but its not like WHOA THATS WEAK...less ur goin up hill but yea. ur timing is off. check it real carefully. then rotate it twice. then see if everythings lined up. im pretty sure its that. no way would a timing belt kill power if it was put on correctly.

Have somebody with a car with about the same power drive it and see what's up.
