u didnt happen (by some slim chance) to have switched a lead round on the dizzy? or perhaps the rotor arm isnt making contact?

worth a look bud..

did u check the rotor arm to see if its on well?

just by some great chance u didnt happen to change the setting of the dizzy (ie adv or retard) when u opened it up ? coz that could cause ur problem if its so retarded that it couldnt start..

just troubleshooting here lol :p

put a few drops of oil in each plug hole, put the plugs back in and try and start it with your foot flat on the accelerator, dont take your foot off until its away.
