If you dumped gas down the tb and it fired then it's obviously a fuel problem, not a spark problem. Turning the distributor would do nothing but possibly damage something. Make sure your injectors are firing properly and make sure your fuel pump is priming.

yea i have a 89 gmc jimmy and the same thing happened to me a while back. it would turn over fine but would only run when i poured gas down the tb. turned out fuel pump was gone. and ill tell ya dropping a 31 gallon tank that was almost full is not fun.
