E30 gets rough idle after preventive maintenance work done.

Hello,

I have a question that maybe someone can answer.  Has anyone experienced
rough idling on a 325e after changing the timing belt,tensioner, and water
pump?  
Someone suggested reseting the computer?  I'm searching for answers.  My
story goes like this. I have my beautiful 84 325e with 140k miles running
like a champ, I decide because of the mileage to get the timing belt,etc done
at a shop.  When I get my car back it was idling high and rough and lack of
power upon initial start up.   I take the car to another shop just to get the
inspection sticker and he adjust the idle.  But even with the adjustment it
still has rough idle and no power.   I start the car and it lacks power, then
I shut it off and then restart it and then it runs o.k.  I'm taking the car
back to the shop where the work was done but I'd appreciate any suggestions.
