Simple fix:

-Remove engine wiring connectors and spark plug wires, deoxidize with Caig Labs DeOxIt spray (from Radio Shack), then reconnect with silicone dielectric paste
-Remove and clean the distributor cap and coil tower
-Remove each injector connector and clean as above.

You will be back in business. It is possible you knocked some insulation off a wire, so look for that as well.
