Sounds like firing order or timing.
Are you sure that you haven't muddled the plug leads up? Check that they
connect in the right sequence. 1-3-4-2
If not that, then you may have the timing 180 dgrees out. i.e. spark going
to #4 when it should be at #1. This can happen either if you took the
distributor out and re-fitted it 180 degrees out, or more likely just if you
have long plug leads making it possible to connect them to the wrong plugs
