timing was off after rev 850

I thought I couldn't go home when the engine started to act on me after I rev the car. The car started to shake as if timing is off and idle is belw normal when acceleration and won't run normal like the car being choked.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong and how can I fix the problem, thanks

cheers,
Chris '97 855T 57K

You may have blown your timing belt, or caused it to stretch and skip. I'd take it in ASAP as this is an interference engine and it'll happily destroy itself if you don't get this resolved.
