just pull the plugs back out and crank the motor over. If you hear even chugs then its probably just a spark issue that got messed up when you went to change plugs.

Check your ignition system, might have a cracked plug wire...etc. You could have gotten water on something under the hood and shorted something out etc.

Bottom line is, check the vaccuum on the engine or pull out the plugs and listen to the consecutive chugs. If its chug,chug.....chug,chug......chug,chug then you threw a seal.
