Exclamation Heeeeellllppppp!!!!!

I installed a new cap and rotor, an spark plug wires. I have an 84 Z with the 305 quadrapuke. I installed a new cap, rotor, and spark plug wires. The car now will not start, and when it does finally start it runs like @$$ and throws a code 32 (baro sensor voltage low). It was running just fine before I changed that stuff. Can anyone tell me what the problem could be?? Any suggestion would be most appreciated.

make sure you did not knock the wires or the vac line off the MAP sensor, which is used for a baro reading, it might be on the firewall to the passenger side from the distributor

It sounds like a loose vac line to the MAP sensor. Check that, and if it's good check your wires....a misfire through the intake can cause a sudden sharp drop in vacuum that will trigger a code 32.
