Make sure the timing is correct. Make sure there are no vacuum leaks. Make sure the IAC is okay

Recheck the valve and ignition timing if okay-look for vacuum leak and misrouted vacuum line

There are two vaccum lines that dont run to anything but there not blowing out or sucking in. But it ran fine befor removing the timing chain but it runs fine other than it reving up when u go to shift or start it
