            Most likely your distributor is not sitted right on the camshaft or most likely you distributor rotor is rotated 180 degrees off. I would take out the distributor again and rotate my crankshaft to TDC (top dead center). Take off the distributor cap and rotate the rotor to point at where the #1 ignition wire plugs in to the cap. Put back the distributor back to the head, put back the cap, then put back the wires and see if she fire's up. I would suggest getting a haynes manual if you are doing this the first time.

                      im pretty sure there it a rubber ring on the distributer that prevents any oil from leaking out but i could be wrong.

                        Replace the rubbber o ring. car quest had it for a buck. cut out the old one and take it with you so they can match it.

                          first make sure your dist is lined up with the cam shaft, there are 2 square teeth on the dist you have you match them to the grooves on the end of the dist.

                          Second there is a wiring harness, make sure you have that connected and SEATEd correctly.


                          Third, would be the most stupid*cough* i mean newb reason....

                          you spark plug wires are probably hooked up in the wrong order.

                          Im at work or i would insert a pic of the dist i have on my photobucket
                          go to http://www.photobucket.com/slice5k you cant miss it its the picture of the dist with numbers on it.

                          also check your No.2 15 amp fuse underdash.
