Help! All I did was change the plug wires (Volvo to Bosch), and now this 86 740T won't start. I've got spark, fuel (checked at the rail), ignition coil sparks, checked to make sure I didn't muss up the firing order from the distributor to the plugs. It just cranks and cranks but engine won't turn over, so much I've just about run the battery down now, so I gotta go and get it charged back up or replaced. Any ideas or recommendations on what I may have missed? Hope something didn't just "coincidentally" go bad at the same time.
