Hi, I'm new here but I had a similar problem. Check your compression and check cam timing marks on cam gears at TDC as you would when installing new timing belt. On my 91 GSX my timing belt broke and bent most of the valves. Rebuilt head and replaced it. Started it & had been idleing 5 min. when itstarted running bad again. The head of the bolt holding balance shaft gear to balance shaft had sheared off, dropped into balance shaft belt, shredded it, kicked it into timing belt andcaused it jump time again and bent a lot of valves. Had rebuild head and replace. Something check anyway. Hope it's easier than that. Good luck, jmh60.
