Is it possible blowing your engine cleaning the TB?
When you sprayed down the butterfly, is it possible to use too much carb cleaner? The car won't start. Did I hydro locked it? I opened up the butterfly valve and sparyed some into the manifold too.

if it won't turn over at all, wait a few minutes and see if some of it evaporates. if not, then pull out the spark plugs, stick some rags/paper towels over the holes, and crank it over then. oughta blow the junk out, then put the plugs back in and drive away.
