Did it sit on the concrete long?? If so just jump start the car or just try push starting it.

YES this could happen if the wrong order..as far as wires this is not a real problem. I used 1.5 DX plugs on my LS for a week or two.
the firing order is...
34
12

that is you standing on the side of the car and looking at the dizzy. 1 far bottom leg,2 the bottom leg torwards the front of the car. 3 the top leg torwards the back of the car, 4 the last leg left
