Well--first off, if you did put the spark plugs in the wrong spots you're timing would be completly off, therfore causing your caure to miss-fire and not start completly. What i would suggest is checking the wires and makeing sure that they are in the vavles all the way. Sometimes if they are loosley hanging out it will cause they vehicle to run extremly rough and loose a lot of power.

Also, I wasn't aware that their was a difference on a manual and automatic head. I know that their is an obviuse differnece in Transmissions and ECU's, but not heads. To my knowladge i thought the only real differnce was the V-tec wiring. Make sure that your V-tec harness and everything else is all hooked up correctly.

Hope that helps, good luck!
