Missfire, check codes, pull plugs, check sensor dongles something likely came unplugged. If you did the timing, check oil for water vice versa. Good luck
 
Sounds like a pretty serious vacuum leak. You need to check all vacuum lines for any that are disconnected or cracked/damaged. Go ahead and perform a vacuum test. You can also start the car and spray Starter Fluid around the suspected hoses. If the engine revs a bit when you spray over an area, then you know you have a vacuum leak in that area. It's just tracking it down which can be a little time consuming.
