if the cylinder was full of petrol it could be fowling up your new plug. take them all out and leave it for a few hours to let it all evaporate away. clean up the plug tips & try again. worth checking the plug actually sparks as well. pull the fuel pump relay #80 then fit sparky to lead #1, rest it on the engine and crank it over, make sure you get a good spark.
yellow wire sounds like dimdip resistor,look on chassis leg just below the driver side headlight. about size n shape of a pack o polos with a yellow wire out of each end. follow the wiring till you find a 2 pin plug, disconnect it and throw the resistor in the bin.
