What plugs did you use ??
Did you gap the plugs correctly ??
Maybe one of the coil packs was starting to break up and now it's been moved around its causing issues. Common problem with the early cars.

Think I've still got some early coil packs if that turns out to be the issue, take the rubber boot off when you gap the plugs and check for cracks. It's best to hold the coil pack on place with something whilst cracking the bolt undone so that they don't move.
