help! my 900 86' carburettor won't start!

My 900 86' carburettor won't kick off. I checked I have gas in the engine (the sparking plugs are always wet after turning the engine) so I thought the problem should be the spark. I changed the sparking plugs and the voltage cables - no result (I also checked other cables). More interesting I check the spark at the plugs (I pulled them out the engine and turned the engine) - it was there.
So now I'm much confused, 'cause my mech told me If a carburettor engine won't start - it's either fuel or spark. I have both - so what could be the problem???
Is it possible that I have sparks at plugs while they're out of the engine and not while they are in it?
BTW I'm not sure I reinstalled the votlage cables in a right way. Is it in a 1:3:4:2 order (starting from the top slot of the distributor cap and going left way)?
Thanks for any clues.
