          I'm sorry I don't know what could possibly be causing your car to die :/

          It's an Automatic BTW.
          Oh, there's the problem .

                      if you powerwashed your car i'd check under the distributor plug wires. also check under the black plastic plate cover (on the valve cover) and check if water got in those plugs. Same thing happened to me when I powerwashed it, tons of water got into it and car idled very rough/died etc.
