Default Question about detonation

Well, I needed a new tps sensor, so I installed it, and then my car started to bog when I accelerated and it would surge at idle. Yesterday when I was driving it, it just died on me, when I pulled the spark plugs, the tip on one of them was completely gone. What do you think the cause of this was? Im guessing the timing was probably off. I just got the car back, and the guy that put in the motor probably didn't time it right, what do you guys think?
