carb backfire wtf

Yesterday i replace my cap,rotor,wires plugs.I had the firing order wrong so I called it quits.Today its raining,great,

so wtv I fix the order get it proper it starts,but ****ing rough,I cant go over like 1500K or else itl like back fire from carb.Engine is shacking everything.Clearly some cylinders aren't firing.Wtf why Im not quite sure maybes it was the rain but it didn't seem to hit the dizzy.

Wen replacing all these things I did not moove my dizzy one bit and for the hell of it i tried and ****ing doesn't moove so I know thats allright.Same for my rotor I thaught maybe I got it out of gauge but wen I try to moove it it simply goes back to its position.


eny one have an idea on wtf is going ?????

Sure, but make sure you're putting the #1 wire on the right post.
