Ausgezeichnet: From what you describe, the rotor may have been put on wrong; it has to sit deep in the cut-out of the distributor shaft. There is a "nose" inside the rotor which fits into the cut-out. Follow each wire from cap to plug, going with the distr.-rotation and firing order. I found that sometimes, when the plug connector does not sit correctly on the plug, the spark will go to ground instead of going through the plug. Maybe your new cap/rotor got damaged when it was put on wrong?
