Water in the spark plug holes is the usual culprit.Remove the COP's and dry them out.

I have to agree you got something wet that wasnt supposed to get wet. If its not water in the plugs, you might have gotten the distributor wet although i think it might possibly not start at all if that was the case. If you wrapped your distributor check the wires you might have pulled one loose.

I always pressure wash my engine bay. Mine has done this before. Usually I 've just given it WOT and it would clear up after a couple of times. Make sure not to wash your block when it is hot from being ran. It can crack.
