I have a 95 Millenia Mazda 2.5 v6 109k miles. I cleaned my engine just a bit with some degreaser. I cover the necessary components. Well after I pressure washed it , I allowed it to dry for maybe 3hours. well i tried to start the car and Nothing happen. The next day I started it and drove about 5 blocks and it stopped on me.I had it towed and the Mechanic told me that I dont have any compression in my front the Cylinders, yet I drove the car home doing only 40. When the car is in park the engine sounds perfect.

Try doing that and pulling the plug wires out and blowing out each spark plug hole to make sure there's no water in them.
