had that same thing happen to me on a yamaha 115 v-4 new plug was doa.

hard to say im not familiar with nissans. you might have either the plug wires switched around or you have something switched under the fly wheel. Before you do that make sure that the flywheel is lining up top dead center. that will make sure you didnt put the flywheel on wrong. I looked at the schematic and it seems pretty hard to put back together wrong. are the coils under the flywheel adjustable? Maybe try the wires, In the schematic they show that the bottom goes to top and the top to bottom. I'm grasping at straws here.
