[tech]timing issue?

["Dave Margretta" <pencilledheaven@hotmail.com>]

hey everyone,
  over the three day weekend i figured i could get a couple things done to 
the rocco that i haven't had the time to do earlier.  well, i decided to 
adjust the solid lifter valves while changing the oil...easy enough right.  
while tring to move the cam to open the valves the belt slipped a few 
teeth...shit!  now i can't get the engine to start.  it'll crank just fine, 
but i don't even get a rough idle w/ some backfiring.  i've checked the 
sparkplugs for a spark and they're just fine...a white and blue arc.  the 
fuel is making it to the injectors also.  is it possible to screw the timing 
up bad enough to not allow the engine to start at all? every time i've run 
into a timing prob on my cars in the past, they'd at least start but would 
run like hell.  anyone ever have this prob before?
