The car turns over, but will not ignite. I have changed the leads, spark plugs (when i took out the old spark plugs they were working fine) but changed them anyhow.

Hi there,

Check for fuel pressure and make sure that the injectors are operating, start here and report your findings, also if you can get a scan done to check for any unresolved fault codes.
