That BOOM is usually a sign of raw fuel in the exhaust lighting off. Could have been any number of reasons. Flooded will do it. If a plug wire(s) got wet from the wash,would not fire,let raw gas pass thru the motor,then it lit off in the pipes. Sounds like it got flooded with fuel SOMEHOW,who knows how. It makes sense that it would clear up in a bit like you described.

Fllooded- wouldnt start-  finally started-  BOOM,exhaust backfire-  ran a bit to clear excess fuel out of motor--now it runs fine.   I'd say your good is she running ok now.

Did it get very wet in the wash?
