Super weird timing issue

I just put new heads on my 1985 4runner sr5 and the timing is really weird. if i set it to 10* BTC it runs horrible but if i put it to about (no markings so im guessing) 20-25 BTC it runs great. What is going on here? Need Any advice!

You didnt put the timing belt back on correctly.
or.
Distributor is installed incorrectly.

Edit. He said 1995 before editing. Disregard this post.

First off, is there a need for two identical threads for this?

Second, I am confused by your post. In 1985, the 4 runner either came with the 22r (very rare) or the 22RE, not the 3.0 as you suggest with (heads & timing at 10*)? The 3.0 started in 1988 as the first model year for that engine.

So what engine are we talking about here becasue were either talking about a belt or a chain and the two are very different.
