need help advice on misfires son is at school with car 850 1995

ODBI computer.

Car had timing belt changed about 2 months ago car was driven around town only with limited highway

Son came home decided to take car back to school. On his way CEL went on (this was yesterday). He now says car is really running rough. Had him pull codes all misfires. 545 452 552 454 554 543. Told him to reset.

Bought car about 4 months ago did not tune it up, car seemed idle and run fine.

My thoughts.
- Timing belt skipped a tooth (but he says he has power going up hills)
- Car is in need of tuneup (but car was idling fine with no miss on acceleration)
- Car did idle a little rough until it got warm when I used it but only a little.

At a loss since he is up a school and I am hours away.

Wanted him to drive it home but we are both concerned about damage.

I am at a loss.

Madness
