Timing adjustment...93 850 850 1993

I replaced my timing belt (and drive belt, water pump, thermostat and flushed the radiator) this weekend. However, even though it seemed to be exactly in the same spots when I put everything back together (timing marks wise), the car seems to be running a little off.

When I first start the car, it doesn't accelerate as quickly and smooth as it did before.

If I have to adjust the timing marks, do I have to remove the belt again? I'm not worried if thats the case.

However, how do I adjust the sprockets manually? Rotate them clockwise by hand and pray?
