I tried starting the car. After a few tries, it did start with clanking and white smoke. But, it would stay idle when pushing the accelerator paddle to 800 RPM. It will stay idling at a lower RPM. I did not have this issue before changing the timing chain.
a). It seems like the ignition pump has jumped at least a tooth. I am not sure how many degrees I can adjust to the pump timing to compensate for the off timing.
b). The old chain was quite loose, and possibly the pump timing has been adjusted to the max, and now it needs to be timed with the new timing chain.
