Exclamation HELP! new sparkplugs + wires = not starting

i just bought some nology hotwires for my car, and some denso iridium plugs. figureing hey it needs it anyways why not get the shit....anyways i changed everything out...making sure i kept the firing order right(which it wasnt hard) but for some reason its not starting at all now. what did i do? does it matter if i dont have the grounding wires(nology's innovation) hooked up too?

make sure the plugs are gapped correctly. go to a hardware or automotive store and buy a plug gapper, and check your manual for the correct gap, then do it

Re: HELP! new sparkplugs + wires = not starting

use a volt meater and test the current running through each of the sparkplug wires. check it with what the wires should be on the box, make sure the plugs are gaped correctly, and the plugs are screwed in. reset your ecu (dissconnect your battery for 5min)
does the car just not crank over, can you hear the starter? is the battery charged? whats its volts?
