Default Galant 4 cyl timing belt changed..........

Friday took my galant in for timing belt change. It now has terrible vibrations especially around 1500rpm. Any ideas why this should be & causes.

Any information I would be grateful for I have to return it on Tuesday but I do not think that he really has any idea what the problem is. Thanks......................

What year is the Galant? I bet they didn't align the oil pump balance shaft correctly!
