Just for some more information,

Does the starter run when the key is turned?

Has the engine run before?

What was the temperature like when you tried to start the car?

Do you know if the engine has the updated coolant temp sensor fitted?

 

Not sure if I'll be able to help, but this information will definitely be useful.

First Welcome to the forum.

 

As it did run (all be it badly) before and it doesn't now you have changed the plugs/leads & dizzy I would suggest you have have fitted one or more items incorrectly, the other thing are you trying to run the 1.4 on the original 1.0 ECU ? as it will not run very well on that ECU it need to be the correct 1.4 version
