Probably timing...
What timing holes are you trying to use?
If you're saying you put the timing belt on in the same position as you did before, but without locking the flywheel, I'll put money on you having not gotten it correct...
RE: timing problem - robert gangnan sharp - 07-01-2013
well i used the 8mm bolts ( 1 on the cam locking at 4 o clock and 2 on the fuel pump 1 at 12? and the othe at 5 o clock)
couldnt get the fly wheel to lock tho

The cam/pump lock twice for every time the flywheel locks once, did you turn the engine over by hand a couple of times to make sure you'd got the right position? Where are you trying to lock off the flywheel?

yh i turned the engine over by hand and i used a allen key to find the hole under the stater motor but the cam locking hole was out by 7 o clock and the pump was out for good, i turned it over about 2 to 3 times
