Well....Are you getting fuel? Can you smell fuel on the spark plugs?
Did you use the one commonly specified or something different?
Did you properly prime the fuel system?

I re-used all my old crush washers when I swapped in my j-spec. I highly recommend that you DONT do that. I didnt know I had to replace them. Put the second one on and save yourself a headache, possibly an engine fire.
