Default Weird spark after timing adjustment

Ok so I adjusted the cam gears and crank. The strokes sound alot stronger now. But now the spark is weird. Before i adjusted it sparked good.. now it sparks once then no more sparks. I tried another coil and the same thing. This thing is starting to fustrate me.. ahhhhhh.. what should i try next?

If you didnt disconnect your pcm youve probably made it retarded. You can take it to the dealer and have them reprogram it, or go buy a new one.

but doesnt that seem "retarded" to have to buy a new computer or have it reprogrammed everytime you service your car?
