Default 1998 B2500 4cyl 5spd, won’t start after accidentally spilling coolant on alternator!

Hello all, I am new here and was looking for some help! I have a 1998 Mazda B2500, 4cyl, 5spd.

So just the other day i needed to change the thermostat. With success in installing the thermostat and bolting it back on, I had forgot to attach one high pressure hose linked with the thermostat hosing.

This in return ended up spraying fresh coolant (cold) onto the alternator and near the coolant reservoir tank.
It luckily didn’t spew out too much, maybe around a cup or two.

The one truck turned over no problem before this. Keep in mind I have all on-board electricity, lights, fan, blinker etc.

Any would be much much appreciated !! Thanks a lot girls & guys!
