Post subject: Car will not start after engine washed - 1988 Acura Integra

The car runs without any problem. One day, I washed my 1988 Acura Integra's engine (fuel injection) due to the dirt and grease on the engine, I used degreaser on the engine and then I use water hose to stream wash it . I have then thoroughly dried it with cloth and I left it overnight.

On the next day, when I try to start the engine, it would start. The engine is attempting to crank but fail. I can hear some kind of combustion like "explosion sound POM......POM......POM" from the exhaust pipe while I am igniting the engine. I checked the battery and seems OK.

The car has been sitting on my garage for 3 days already and the car still not able to start. I don't know what wrong it with it.

Any comments are really appreciated.
