I just did a tune up on a 1968 ford 302 and now it will crank but won't start.
The parts I replaced were
Spark Plugs: single platinum gapped at .035
Spark Plug wires
Distributor Cap/ Rotor button
Used firing order 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8

Is it backfiring or firing at all? Based on year, the firing order could be 1,3,7,2,6,5,4,8. However, the order you mentioned is also a possibility.

After thinking for a minute, I believe the order I gave you is for FI engines. Are you getting spark to the plugs?
