Default car not starting?

Well i changed the distributor plate in my distributor and now my car doesn't start. Do you guys know whats wrong. When i tried starting the car all i heard was a popping noise from my exhaust. I don't know what to do. What do you guys think?

Make sure you put the plug wires in the correct order. If you didnt then you would hear thouse back firing noises.

are you talking about the cap? yup, check plug wires. if you're changing wires i suggest you change the cap, vice versa.
