Amy,
look at you workshop manual. There should be a diagram of the distributor
with plug wires attached, showing which one goes where.
What do you mean by it sounds rough?
Do you get a spark at the spark plug wires?
Is the ignition timing set correctly? Static timing as per manual.
Is there fuel in the carb bowls? To take lack of fuel out of the
equation, your could spray starting fluid into the carbs before starting.
Good Luck!
