running crappy

Ok well sorry if this is long, but I i need some answers bad. I bought my first car today, its an lg4 305 86 Z 28. Well it ran fine all day and then a friend and I decided to tune it up. We replaced the plugs with delco cr43ts and gapped at .035, We put on new accel wires, and Borg Warner cap and rotor. After our botched tune up it won't idle to save its life, and the choke, and check engine light are on. We got a code 13 on the OTC and it sound like something is arching in the distributer. all the while the tack is bouncing all over the place and it's 2 something in the morning and i have to be at work in 7 hours. Any help would be great.Thanks
