Default Car won't start

I Replaced the heater hose and had to completely remove the distributor (not the cap) to gain access to the hose. After I replaced the hose, put back on the distributor and plug wires in correct firing order my car will not start. Car was working fine before I messed with the distributor. Any suggestions?

is it cranking?

if it is, you may have moved the rotor button inside. also make sure you plugged all the wires back into the correct position.

you may have misaligned the rotor that connects to the camshaft...
remove the distributor assembly and see if you can rotate the rotor 180 degress and see if it bolts back up

Check the tire air pressure.
