Default car wont start need help

Ok so recently my car has been hard to start it takes a while before it fires up, maybe 5 seconds. I pulled the plugs and 2 electrodes were burnt off the other two were really worn. I replaced them and it was all good for a day then the same thing happened with starting. Pulled plugs and they looked fine. Now it wont start at all it just turns and turns. My comp. is 11.5:1 a/f is 13.3ish and idk wtf to do. any help is welcome

oh and all this started happening after i used lucas fuel cleaner/upper cylinder lubricant.
