After pressure washing the engine the engine had a small miss but still ran good, after sitting one week I tried to start the engine and there is no fire to the spark plugs.

Hi semcx,

Thank you for the donation.

Remove the distributor cap and check for water condensation. If there are, dry it up and retry.

If sparks are not available, test the ignition coil for power supply with ignition switch ON.
