Water in the distributor cap....happens when i power wash my engine.

Pull the cap off and use a towel or something to dry it out....Also make sure you didn't make a plug wire pop off the plug or cap.

Dry out the inside of the cap like he said. Then spray the inside with WD40, should fix you up the majority of the time.

Next time you shampoo your engine make sure you finish it off with conditioner and a blowdry.
