So,
I changed the valve cover gasket on my e90 that had been leaking oil for a while. (That was a PITA itself, since I had a broken bolt). I get it all changed, and all back together, start it up, and it runs like Sh*$t. It runs, but has a real rough idle, and when rev-ing it up, it is real rough. Idles barely around 600rpms.
Any ideas on what is up? The plugs are new....PLEASE HELP! I dont want to have to take it to the stealer!

Thanks everyone!
