Default rough idle finally solved!

I have a 96 accord rough idling was one of my major problem f*#k!
after dozens of testing and timing adjust, changing plugs, wiresetc... with no improvement on my car!

then this morning i went to the dealer to have them check on my ride, only to find out that the indy mech i hired before to replace my car's timing belt got everything screwed up! the dealer told me the setting was allwrong the crank shaft and the cam gear was noton its proper setting!( delayed! ) and the dealer told megood thing nothing got broken inside the engine[&o]

I just got my car from the dealer my ride runs silky smooth and power was up high!

after dozens of testing and timing adjust,
First off I second the Dude to thank you for posting the reply I wish more members would do so..

Now.. there is no way that anyone could have adjusted the timing properly if cam timing was off.. .and if it was you that worked on the car you should have mentioned ,,# 1 .that issue satarted after timing belt replacement
and #2 that engine could not be timed properly heck even if it was not you that worked on the car ..
I am sure a few of us here would have sent you on the right tracks ..

If you guys DO NOT give us all the details we go around in circles and take a lot longer to find a solution to your problem ..

But above all .. I am glad that car runs great now
