#1: Ensure distributor cap isn't 180 degrees backwards. Anybody remember if they are keyed? #2: Did you rotate distributor (timing)? Even if it's WAY off, you should be able to correct spinning engine w/ starter motor. #3: Are you SURE you're getting spark? Verify with a timing light. You need 10v into the coil to get High Tension (you can use the timing light on your coil lead as well as individual plugs). #4: Did you use up all the gas in the accumulator? Unless you've modified, fuel pump isn't energized until engine is running. Try jumping the fuel pump relay. Keep us updated...
