A couple of questions...
1. Does it have gas?  
If the tank was near empty and it's been sitting for months, you may be out of gas. Add a gallon to the tank from your lawnmower gas can to be sure.

2. What kind of plugs did you install?
Platinum plugs?  Hope not; it won't run well but it should still fire.

3. Do you have an electronic ignition?
Check that after the things others already recommended.    Checking dizzy cap, plug wires properly oriented, coil wire, ground, etc.
