I just one of the plug housing and boot from one of my spark plugs to see what kind of tool I need to replace the spark plugs. When I re-attached the housing and boot to the plug it was unable to restart. It's not even turning over. I've rechecked to see if I re-attached the boot and housing correctly, but it still doesn't turn over. I've checked the battery and alternator and they are fine. Any advise?

Take the spark plug out (leave the plug wire on) ground it to the engine and get someone to crank the engine . If you don't see a bright blue spark then the wire might not be attached to the plug all the way.I'd start there If I were you.
