Default 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.
