I recently replaced my timing chain in my corsica to save $$. I did exactly what my Chiltons guide told me to do had the marks on the gears at 12:00 but after i got it all back together i have problems with it idleing. I can start the car and i can feather the gas pedal and it will stay running but as soon as i let off the gas it sies. I checked my spark plug wires with the picture given to me in the book and they all seem to be in order. I know that this is not an interference engine so i know that it did not mess up my valves i hope no back firing or anything like that. Could this be the computer because my cars timing was off. If the chain was on and i moved it out of top dead center while having the timing marks lined up would that cause no idle or whats up please get back to me.
