Like Don says: Do an open-gap, cranking spark test, and it should jump a good 1/4″. Then try a small amount of fuel oil mix in the cylinders, through the plug holes. Pull a number of times,as this could actually FLOOD the engine for a minute, first. If it fires off briefly and quits, then the fuel system itself would be my next primary focus. If it doesn’t fire at all, you have other problems than fuel. Compression must be high enough, like they both said. These engines were sometimes known to blow head gaskets. And finally, since you replaced the plug wires, make sure they’re going to the correct cylinders. The forward-most coil is the top cylinder.
Long live American manufacturing!
