After a removal of the distributor to do an intake manifold gasket, at the same time I did new plugs, wires, new radiator with partial flush, new oil and filter. With all plugs in except for number 1, I had my mom bump the engine until it blew my thumb away from the number 1 spark plugs socket, I stabbed the distributor, with a little tweaking of the oil pump with a long effing screw driver, it went in and bolted down flush. It dodn' t want to start, so I gave it some gas, it back fired so bad, a few of my mom's neighbors ran out to see of anyone had been shot. I tried adjust the distributor a little to no avail, then I re routed the plugs once more clockwise as there is no exact starting point defined in the cap or rotor. After that, it decided it would crank and back fire a little bit, but not really run. Any ideas, guys? Any help is appreciated, even things I may have done, but incorrectly.
