check that you seated the plug wires on the cap and plugs snugly. Just
push down on them. Did you replace one plug and one wire at a time? Or all
at once? If so, you may have messed up the firing order. Is the cap seated
on the distributor correctly? Is the rotor seated firmly down on the
distributor?  Check vac-lines. When you mess with the passanger side plugs
you can mess with vac lines. Did you put teh afm and air intake back on
correctly? Check that you didn't bump and wires. Push them back on snugly.
good luck
