Default tuneup help!

Just did a tuneup on my gf's car. replaced sparkplugs and wires. now the damn thing won't start. labeled distrubor cap before taking off the wires so i'm pretty sure they are on there correctly. plugs are tight. wires are connected firmly. the car just turns over and doesn't start. btw it 's a 2000 honda civic ex 1.6 litter 4 banger. any help will be appreciated.

You might want to ask the guys over in the '92-'00 Civic forum, they might know better since you're working on the same car. I haven't worked on/owned a '96-'00 Civic, so I can't help much.

Double check plug wires. Did you check the plug gap ?

hmm.. Sorry but, that's pretty funny. You go on thinking that your tuning up the car and end up with it not starting at all. Sorry dude, but there's no enough information there as to how the car is reacting.
