    hi there so what are you getting is the turning over just not starting ,or nothing ,did it stop running straight after you washed the engine or did it take an hr or so because you might of cooked the ignition module or shorted a relay out ,i have a vp 5.0 not shaugh if they are the same i am guessing they are i would be looking at relays for fuel pump etc if not look at the the ignition module also did you have the car running before you washed it and was it at running temperature and did you have the car running while you washed as i have encountered problems in the past with car that i washed the engine bay they struggled to start after washing them hot which is bad as hot and cold dont mix so next time i would keep her running while doing it as i keep myn running when doing the bay.

    cheers bhopper
