Default Off a cob?

Alright so pretty much here's the problem. I just changed the waterpump, tentioner pully, and the timing belt. It was running good before just in need of a tune-up. After i changed everything and put it back together, this is what i got:



Im guessing that in the midst of changing everything i didnt pay close enough attention and put the timing belt on with one cob in the wrong position. Would one cob cause it to idle like this? I have checked the timing and the timing is dead on the money. I just dont want to have to tear everything back down to get to the timing belt if i dnt have to. But im prettysure it has something to do with that. Any help would be highly appreciated. Need answers ASAP. This is my only means of transportation. Thanks Guys!

instead of waiting for a reply, why dont you just go back outside and recheck your timing marks?

base timing is for sure off, probably only 1 tooth so that's why it appears to be in time correctly but double check again and look closer this time.
