So in my timing belt ordeal I was playing the throwing parts at a problem game and switched out my ignition coil and never marked the position in dizzy was at. Got the timing belt done (eventually lol) Car sounds alright sometimes a misfiring idle. I got just about 240miles on my last tank. Before this I was getting like 320-360 on a tank doing deliveries. Im at a quarter tank and I have only put 50 miles of just driving to school and work not even speeding. I replaced my spark plugs after the timing belt plugs are essentially new put them about 2 months back. What exactly is the stock degree on a dizzy and how do I get to that. (1994 celica gt 5sfe)

You didn't mess with the cam shafts like take them out of the engine or anything did you?

If ignition timing is way off it'll run like crap for sure, jump the diag terminals and get a timing light and reset it to 10 btdc.
