the car was running perfictly before I ventured on this project. so I can only assume after I connected everything back it should start up and run just fine. but it doesn't. about the distributor.. I removed it to get out of the way so I could get to the coolent hoeses.I disconnected the fuel line running from the fuel pump. but never touched the actuall pump. could my spark plugs go bad even though they worked perficly before I began. sorry for the terminology I'm kind of new to somewhat big engine projects. but I do appreciate your help.
