I just changed the timing belt, head gasket and balancer shaft belt on a 97 accord and now it runs really rought like it is misfiring. While it is running, if i pull off #1 or #2 spark plug wire or injector plug, there is no change in idle. If i do the same thing to number 3 or 4, the car dies or there is a huge change in idle. The timing is dead on, I am not sure what to do

 

I also did a compression test and all cylinders were between 170-180psi

 

bump.... need help

 

Firing order?
Got any cracks in distributor cap?

Pull plugs #1 & #2 after running
- should be wet with fuel if it's spark problem.

 

did you adjust the valves when you put the head back on?

 

better check your timing marks agian sounds like your off a tooth real easy to do there a couple of ways all depends on witch motor you have find some body that has a picture of how the timing marks line up good luck

 

also check the valve adjment may be to tight be sure of the timing marks
