Urgent Help, Car Won't Start!

I did the noise fix for my starter from Motorvate.ca. Then I cleaned the throttle body while I was at it. I tried to turn it on with the intake and the maf sensor off, and smoke came out the TB (alot). Then I installed everything, and the car didnt start. So my question is...could it be that I sprayed the TB cleaner while the car was off? This sucks....

You said you plugged the MAF back in? Does it crank at all? Its gonna choke when you first turn it on.

Yea, I plugged the MAF back in. Sometimes it cranks, and sometimes it sounds like it's just spinning. I was expecting it to choke a little bit, but the car wont start at all.

Nevermind, I fixed it. I took the starter apart again, and I installed a piece backwards. Thanks for the help.
