crank but no start

i changed fuel pump, fuel filter, wires, and plugs.
after I changed the plugs and wires, it start the first time, so I let it run for a while, but after 10-15 min it suddenly died.
even since then I couldn't start, it only cranks but didn't fire up.

any help is appreciated.

how do I know how much R12 left in the system? I just know it's low on it (been blowing normal air for 6 months), but not sure if it's completely empty so I can put r134a in. Also, is the yellow cirlce the high side and the red circle the low side port in the picture? http://img524.imageshack.us/img...

I noise it when I straighten my wheel after turning left.
The noisehappens as I am turning my wheel, but not when I'm holding it and turn.

Is the speedo cable wrapped in plastic? What does it look like?

I tried to fill from the check hole, but I can't get anything fluid to go sideway and slightly up through that hole.
