Default Need Help Please "ignition system"

So i finally got new wires and plugs i could not believe how hard the plugs where to get out of the head's, Plus they where so disgusting one of em even had a broken piece of ceramic which made it's way into the engine at one point, I think i made a mistake with the wires tho I'm getting ALLOT of white smoke coming out of the tail pipe and she is not running right at all I heard some bangs and ping's can someone please help, I thought i had it right I got this diagram but I think its not right, its from a 2001 I got a 98 Also i cleaned out my spark plug cylinder with brake cleaner cuz there was dirt and **** in there I wanted out so it would not go into the cylinder so I sprayed the shi**t outa it with brake cleaner to get all the dirt and crap outa there whille the plug was still in thr of course, I think a bit went into the engine too
Thanks
