Default what did i do wrong

ok I just did a compression check on my car and it came out 210,200,200,190. Anyways when i put everything back and started the car it idled really rough. The car would shake and the motor sounded a lot louder. Does anyone know what i did wrong?

nope...bump for ur problem and those numbers sound way too high...

did you crank the motor manually when checking? or with the key?
you couldve flooded the cylinders if u didnt undo the neg. battery terminal if u did it with the key...

Did you replace all of the plug wires correctly?

Plug wires are on the wrong plug
Something is loose.

i checked all the plugs and they're in the right place. But now that i think about it i did drop one of the spark plugs. Can that make a difference?

They sound about right to me.
Make sure you have everything plugged back in.
Check the gap on all of your plugs
