smarty timing too advanced?

my truck tries to start but then just stops and if you leave the key forward, in start position, it keeps turning over so my guess is it tries to start , hits the cylinder and missfires and thats what it says on the code, multiple cylinders missfires, cylinder #4 missfire, cylinder #5 missfire, and all this from putting smarty on sw3 so not sure if i had problems and putting it on advanced timing just kicked it over the edge or what happen but it wont start and im taking it to dodge dealership tomorrow any thoughts?

did you try clearing the codes with the smarty? also maybe disconnect the batteries for a half hour or so and go from there.

crack the fuel filter cover to make sure you are getting fuel from lift pump, if you are, inspect fuel filter for blockages including gelled fuel. 911 fuel stuff in filter housing, and in tank and let it work its magic, fresh filter when closing her back up will not hurt either.
