plugs shouldn't be wet, sounds like you have no spark, change the plugs, check HT leads and coils if you can, could be the cold weather has killed the battery?? does it turn over ok??

He might have no spark cos the plugs are still wet, ive had the same problem before. What i did was take the plugs out, clean them, re-set the gaps then stuck them on the gas hob for a few minutes to warm them up. Stick em back in and it should fire up right away with a bit of smoke which soon clears. Be careful when you take the plugs off the hob, obviously they will be hot! Also stick the battery on charge while you do it, give a bit of extra power for when you come to start it!
