Cleaned out engine area now runs like poo

After the fun in the mud I came home and did the pressure wash thing.
I cleaned under the hood and started it up for a few then went to bed.
Now the issue, it is not running on the #3 cylinder.
I tried:
Cleaning the cap and rotor.
Cleaning the plug.
Different wire
Seems nothing helps
I do get a minor spark from the #3 wire not much though.
Other odd thing is when running it is real rough, when I pull the #3 wire it runs smoother
So sounds like a cap to me, any other ideas.
Also anyone know a Bosch part # for the rotor and cap for a 110 engine? ? ?
Thanks
Rick

The cap and the rotor are the same as the sedan. Take the rotor and cap to your local parts house and don't tell them it's for a G. They can match it up. Sean at Eurotruck can get you one too I'm sure. www.eurotruck-importers.com.

It was the cap. Got 3 sets so I do not get stuck out there without
