no start after reassemble
i put my truck back together from replacing lower intake gasket. i went to turn it on it ran for roughly ten seconds. then it shut off. i checked the plug wiring and plug wires on 3 and 4 were switched. fixed that tried to start again and there no start just cranks over. what are possible causes the distributer was out and put back in at same spot.

ok, I would say stop and pull codes.
I say this because of an 87 Celica I had that did that when I forgot to plug a sensor back in. I would say pull the codes and see if anything comes up. What would be better yet is if you could do a KOEO test at this point.
This also seems likely since you had to have all of the intake stuff apart which is riddled with all sorts of electronics.
