Probably coincidence as your original plugs didn't work. Start with basic diagnostics like is there a spark at the plugs? (easiest way is to remove a lead at a time, put one of your spare plugs in, hold it against and earth with insulated pliers as you get someone to turn it over if it's a dizzy, if it's coilpack put spare plug in one connector at a time and repeat the above procedure), can you hear ticking from the injectors when turning over? Is the fuel pump running etc?
