I've got a 95 Talon Tsi that started briefly after a long rebuilding process. After timing the engine cranked a few times and it started up but ran at abnormally high rpm 2300. Recently replaced the TPS but dont know if its correctly hooked up. Anyway engine runs while attempting to adjust TPS idle speed. car dies after rotating the engine sensor slightly. Looking at belt and noticed it slipped off main pulley. Moved the main pulley a bit inside put the belt back on and its kicked but then died and and wouldnt crank. attempted to manually crank the main pulley and it woudnt turn. Im stuck, so frustrating.
Hoping the engine didnt seize after all this progress. What should I try to do to get it to turn and start again?
I also need to know everything about the TPS connections and installation settings to make sure I have it correct. I need to know where the fuel pressure regulator sensor tubes/hoses connect to as well

Which belt? The A/C?
If you are talking about the timing belt, "crank walk" is ok as long as you redo the timing. The engine can walk a tooth or two before it becomes a serious problem. I would focus on the tesioner or pulleys "source of the problem" The engine didn't just pop off the belt.
That does suck... but repairable.
