Hi guys first of all I'd like to thank those responsible for posting the timing belt change write up it was very useful.

-I did this a few months ago and have been driving the car with no problems, it just seems a tad slower and mileage has gone down, but that may due to it being winter and having to warm the car up first.
-I have a 94 celica gt 2.2 liter

-I changed the timing belt and rotated the motor *without* the tension pulley tightened down so I the timing marks on the camshaft and crank moved a few teeth out of alignment. I went to realign the marks and started it but something was definately off. The car didn't want to rev up. So I moved the camshaft and realigned the marks a few teeth not sure which way or how many it was too long ago. *Next I started it up and it runs fine smooth, I did reset the timing back to factory specs. but it seems low on power and mileage.

-My question is how will the car run if the camshaft gear is advanced or retarded by 1 tooth. Will it be obvious with misses, slow to rev.? Or would it still run smooth just with a little less power and mileage like I have?


Thanks
