Hey all. A few weeks ago, I high pressure hosed my engine bay. I tried to start it up yesterday, and it just keeps cranking, and wont kick over. I'm guessing that it's something related to the distributor, as I didn't have this covered up when I washed the engine bay. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

its got water inside it... leave it for a day or so, or pull the cap off and dry it or use some wd40 (i spray that before i clean my engine)

Thanks mate. I high pressure hosed it a couple of weeks ago, so it's had a while to dry out. Where should i spray the WD40? Thanks.

if you get the crank angle sensor wet it stuffs up if you have compressed air blow out the dizzy cap and unplug the crank sesor and blow it out that should get u going your better off not spraying wd40 inside your dizzy cap as it will start to burn and put burnt **** all over the cap contacts, wipe the cap out and let it dry if it's wet
