b18b Missing after cleaning?

Pressure washed my b18b.. car ran fine afterwards. However now the engine misses once it gets warm. Took off cap and rotor... (recently repalced) not wet......

Any ideas ?

Thanks
Bryan

What about wires? Is any of your ignition non-OEM? I replaced cap and rotor 2 days before cleaning with aftermarket (dealer was closed) and started missing and throwing codes. Never had a problem with OEM stuff, went right to the dealer and got new cap and rotor, everything was fine.

take the spark plug wires off and see if there is water in the spark plug holes
