Welcome to the forums. If your positive you lined up the marks when putting the chain on than I'd go back and check all the carb connections. Make sure the boots are sealed up good. Make sure you have gas.

Sure sounds like the chain is not timed right. I know you said it is, but a backfire usually indicates it's wrong.
