Wash the motor by chance? Spray a little WD-40 in/around the cap and see if that helps.

no just a light outside wash and wax,didnt even open the hood.

Are you running, true dual exhaust? If so, slide a dollar bill in front of the end of each pipe while idling and see if one or the other side trys to suck the bill in the pipe. That will be the side with the miss, then check it from there, plugs, wires, ect....
