Sounds like the engine possible took in a gulp of water... Were you able to restart the engine after it stalled? If not, i'd suspect something electric/electronic.

never ever spray your engine with high pressure water. Your just asking for problems. Water gets into every single electrical connector. Next time just use some rags and elbow grease to clean your engine
