Did you connect the plastic tube that goes from the air cleaner to the throttle body nice and tight ? Even the nuts that go to the throttle body from that tube?

I experienced a similar problem, replaced the wires, unflooded the engine, cleaned the plugs, car started and ran. But my coils has the correct resistance when tested.
If you can smell fuel, you probably still have it flooded. I hooked my car up to some jumper cables and turned it over for a good 10-15 minutes with the inj. fuse pulled before putting the fuse back in. First attempt to start with the fuse in and flames shot out the back burning all the fuel that had accumulated in the exhaust system. A timing light can also be useful for detecting spark, but if you have good wires like magnecor's an inductive light probably won't sense any spark. |
yea cronic`s car must love me its begging for my attention again.
