OH ****......do a leakdown or a compression test. Simple, inexpensive, and it will
tell you wether or not your motor is any good

the bottom of the spark plug was smashed!?! can pistons even go that high.. I dont think you need to adjust your timing it sounds like you need a new spark plug.... are you sure that plug wasnt already like that?
Girlfriends car sputtered real bad for about 6 months, i thought it was the timing it turned out to be a bad plug wire. you would get the same result from a bad spark plug...
If your spark plug did get smashed by you then your valves probably did to, your valves may be shot and you block may still be good... theres alot of things that could of happened just let us know
