Exclamation Need Help Engine Wont Start

I have a 95 honda civic, that I was driving in the rain, and it felt like it was bogging out, so i kept hitting on the gas, and it finally caught back on, and then drove a little while further and it did the same thing, except this time it stalled out, and it would start back up. Its like I can start it up, but as soon as it starts it dies, and if i dont turn back the key it wont even start at all, until i turn back the key, and then start it again, and it will start and then die again. I have tooken apart my distibutor cap, and had no moisture in it, and I have no idea what is wrong with my car. Could someone please help me out ASAP, and tell me if its a sensor or what? Thanks alot

That did sound like water, but fuel filter would've been my next bet. Glad you got it fixed
