washed engine, car will not start

posted by  someone claiming to be cr on  Sat Dec 15 09:53 CST 2007 [RELATED]


here is a bit of detailing which probably got carried away...

the car is a 1991 740 b230F...

I was in the process of cleaning the engine and engine compartment. After shooting some degreaser, I cleaned the engine and firewall area, including the distributor cap area by shooting the water hose on the distributor cap area (without thinking).

The car now turns over, but will not start.

It was dumb, I know - but any thoughts on how to fix?

thanks
