cold start missfire

back story is i pressure washed my engine, forgot to flip the lid on my aircleaner so the filter got wet, went to start it when i was done and it wouldnt and it continued not to for a couple hours, between waiting and even spraying wd40 in the cap it finially started and ran fine after that

the next morning when i started it up it idled with a real bad miss and would not go away, cleaned the plugs and it was ok for a few days then it did it again so i just put new plugs in and it was fine again for a little while, now from time to time it will idle rough on a cold start but then be fine after warming up and drives around fine


my first thought was i hadnt gotten all the moisture out of the engine being winter months but yet even after driving it on the freeway and higher speeds it still did it


its better now than it was before but it will still sputter on start up times
