You probably got the firing order off or your ignition control module could be bad or the rotor are you sure you got the firing order correct did you take one wire off at a time

Does your distributor rotate any? If so is it back in its original orientation? I always paint marker the exact spot before taking off old cap.

Do you have spark at the plugs? Check 2 or 3 to make sure you are getting spark. Don't need to check all, just ones you can easily reach.
