Did you put the gear on the shaft 180 deg out? Usually the gear only goes on one way because of the cuts in the gears are not even numbered.

Is that because there is a notch on the shaft?is there a mark somewhere on the shaft or anywhere else im missing?does the rotor only go on one way?

Probably not if its EFI. Have you checked for a spark at the plugs?
