I'll just make a note to send you the tee shirt here (scratch, scratch)

Bet you pulled out the distributor to clean it up ? the relationship
between cam, crank, and spark is set by the positioning of the distributor
drive shaft, and if you pull it and replace it you will never start it
'cause the timing's wrong. Details of correct positioning removal /
replacement are in the manual.

If you didn't pull the ditributor I'll just look apologetic, and suggest a
gentle tow for a few hundred yards in second gear high range with an
extinguisher ready....
