The timing is off.
Remove the front spark plug. Have someone slowly turn the engine over with the hand crank while you hold your finger in the spark plug hole.
When you feel air whooshing out, stop. Go to the front pulley and slowly turn the engine until the pointer on the front of the engine lines up with the notch in the pulley.
Follow the front spark plug wire back to the distributor cap. Mark that post on the cap. Remove the cap. If the tang on the rotor is not directly below that post, that's where your problem is.
You've got to figure out why it's that way, and what to do to fix it.
If it's a little off you just need to rotate the distributor a little to line it up.
If it's WAY off, you probably put the wires on the wrong posts.
