Default problems after valve cover gasket changed

I just changed the passenger side valve cover gasket and started the car, everything seemed fine, then I decided to take it for a drive and see how it would run, and what da ya know, it won't accelerate past 1500 rpms, no matter how far down I press the gas pedal, it wont accelerate. Just sounds like it's bogged down or something. I did disconnect two coolant hoses, and a fuel line in order to get the valve cover off. Any ideas?

How about them beans

I just went outside started and drove it around the block with no problems, I think i might have gotten something wet, that wasn't supposed to be. I just hope I fixed the oil leak too.
