Default another car wont start question after swapping dizzy

Okay heres the story cut short. Drove the car parked it made it cool down. The dizzy worked fine its just that it was leaking oil, so i took it out took out the rotor and tranfered it over to the other dizzy then tried starting it up . . and it wouldnt. The car cranks and all theres fuel ( I have two FPR gauge) and i can the car has backfirce i dont know why but it does. So i said oh maybe mad dizzy so i took out the rotor again put it abck to the dizzy i was running then still didnt start. Could it be because i touched the rotor oil on my fingers when tyring to take it out. Need help please. .. cna oil burn out a rotor that fast i dont have a spare rotor.

Maybe your spark plugs got fouled during the whole mess? I would start there.

my car had back fire specialy when i ran cold plugs for nitrous. Figured it out already . . . the rotor i guess burned out. Cuz changing that out car started up and ran fine. Yes the firing order was 4 3 2 1 cylinder starting from the dizzy side and 1 3 4 2 starting from bottm left going clockwise on the dizzy so im pretty sure i had that correct. Got it done thanks all for the help.
