car wont start AGAIN
hey. i decided to clean my engine bay using simple green and water. anyway, after i was done, i started my car and let it run for awhile. after observing it, the car just died. i mean wtf? i came to the conclusion that i got water in the distributor cause i didn't cover it
so i took off the cap and inspected it and then ran compressed air through it. so i just reattaced the cap and plugs and tried starting it, and it started a couple times after 238098 tries, but it always dies especially if i gas it. this is a 95 ex if it makes a difference. any suggestions??
edit: oh yea, and my car is parked on a hill thats fairly steep but not THAT steep. could it be that since i let it run for awhile on a hill, that fuel is not getting to the engine?? ive never actually had that happen yet on this car, only on my old crx.

lol are you low on fuel?
ps i have no idea what im talking about but if its low on fuel maybe if its real steep it wouldnt be getting enough fuel. One way to tell is put ur car on a flat spot?
