Default Car wont start after valve lash

I did a valve lash last night and only adjust 2 of them in cylinder 3 (yes i did it correctly at tdc) And now my car will not start when i tried. Im going to try to figure it out with a mechanic tonight. But anything i should look for first? It can start put i have to give it throttle and runs really rough.

Yeah, obviously they are too tight, you sure you are adjusting them correctly?

Did you do the 2 when the motor was TDC or when the cylinder was TDC? You need to get each cylinder TDC to do them (mainly just the head)

With the cams up thats cylinder 1
Cams pointing left: 3
Cams point down: 4
Cams point right: 2
