4age running poorly

ill keep it as short and concise as possible:
-down low the car barely pulls and actually goes worse if u put foot to the floor rather than gradually letting onto the accelerator
-in first and second the car picks up considerably after 4.5gran revs but in 3rd,4th and 5th it struggles a fair bit
-car is running lean
-pings slightly wen pushed
now this is wat ive done to fix the issue but so far hasnt worked:
-changed fuel filter,spark plugs, fixed exhaust leak.
-there was no o2 sensor, hooked another single wire toyota o2 sensor
-checked ignition timing and it was set to 20degrees, wen totally retarding it the lowest we could get it to was advanced 20 degrees, so we pulled the dizzy out and skipped it over 1 tooth and then wen couldnt get it any higher than 5degrees advanced ( im thinking the cam timing could b out).
if any 1 has any ideas as to wat the problem is, help would b much appreciated (if any1 also knows of any good mechanics or anything like that, that work on these engines plz let me know)

i went with the procedures with aligning the indents and it was like yours
then i just said "fuck it i'll just shove it in my way and see what happens" and it worked
