Default 95civic d15b7 head gasket help >~<

So the other day came to find that there was water in cylinder 1 so I changed the head gasket. After completing filled her with fluids fired her up she started idle was a tiny off let it idle for a minute it died hasn't started since can't figure out what's going on the only thing I have found is there is fuel on the plugs and the spark is orange guessing that means weak lol any help or advice would be great thank you

Check the mechanical timing and compression test the cylinders.

Is this a no-crank or no-start problem?

When you replaced the head gasket, you must have installed the the timing belt and set the mechanical timing of the cam and crank. In contrast, ignition/spark timing is adjusted using a timing gun.

It cranks over just won't start and yeah I have checked the timing made sure it was at tdc when pulling the head made sure the dizzy was at cylander 1 and all that it just cranks and cranks doesent even try to start I pulled the plugs noticed they had fuel on them and tested spark and it's there just a weak orange color also my check engine light was on when it started right after but not sure if it's from the o2 sensor due to the wires coming out of the plug when pulling the manifold away from the block

Please use punctuation. It's difficult to read your wall of text.

Recheck the mechanical timing.

Pull the CEL codes.

Orange spark is weak. The coil may be damaged. Ohm test it.
