98 Lumina Cyl 6 Misfire.

I had to wash my engine bay because of a coolant leak made a huge mess under the hood. I washed the engine and now I have a misfire on cylinder 6, I switched out the plug and wire with another cylinder, it still puts out the same code of a #6 misifre. It never had this problem before I washed it so, could something possibly dry out and fix itself? Any ideas? Thank You All.

Let it dry out thoroughly see what happens, lots of areas for spark problems between a wet block/coil/wires.

If you used high pressure water from a power washer or car wash, you may have knocked an injector harness loose, or got water under the coils. It's possible that you even cut a wire if you got to close with the spray wand.
