Spark plug wires

Thanks, I bought a set of Accel wires and now I get no spark at any of the plugs. The whole story is that, I went to install a white performance Dist. and when I pulled it out because the engine wouldn't start "might be off by 180" It was hard to pull out. Well I finally got it out. I tried to put the old dist. back in and it wouldn't set all the way down in the block. I look in the dist hole and found the oil pump shaft was raised up a little. I messed with it for awhile and it finally set back into place. Does the oil pump shaft have anything to do with engine timing or is it just driving the oil pump. I replace the control box tested and looked at the back of the balist resister tested good. How do you test a coil? What are the volts a the + side and the - side? Sorry for the long post. I am lost on this one.
