ford Mondeo - Help !! - Jeffo77

Some time ago i had my fuel system tampered with by some sand in the tank ! . Since i have replaced Injectors fuel pump injector rail fuel filter and have cleaned the tank out 3 times. My car now starts first turn of the key but it has no power wat so ever wen driven. I have been told it might be timing ? which is the chain on my car it also blows out black smoke can anyone shed some light on wat i should do next as the local ford dealer wants 80 quid to look at it and if it is the timing it will cost a further 280 pound !! any one any ideas !! Please
