Default Noob Problem

the other day i disconnected one of my spark plug wires just because and i went inside to go eat. when i came back to the car i tryed to start it and it wouldnt start and then i remembered the spark plug wire i unplugged. i plugged it back in and tryed to start my car and it just kept cranking but wouldnt start. i was thinking it would be the distributor that is messing up . and i just need some ideas on what could be the problem.

check to see if it have spark, remove one of your spark plug and crank the motor to see if it still have spark. but put the spark plug wire near a ground to see if the spark jump

If you do not have spark then it could just be your coil or your initer.

How hard is that stuff to change and about how much would the parts be.

It is easy to change the coil. Just call a autopart shop like Autozone for the qoute.

If your dizzy is bad your tack will not bounce at all. I just had my dizzy go bad in mine. Hope this helps a bit. You might wanna check to make sure you have fuel and make sure you dont have any fuses blown. Hope this helps.
