    Need way more info to even try and diagnose this issue. What car is it in? SOHC or DOHC ZC? OBD0 or OBD1? Did you do the swap? Wiring? Any CELs?

    Change the plug, thats the only thing you havent messed with, just because the wire is firing, does not meen the plug itself is good. But really need more info to help
