Pull the connectors off the coil pack, the DIS, and the cam sensor and blow them out with compressed air. I'd suspect moisture got into something when the engine was hosed down. Be sure to do the same with connectors bundled all around the supercharger.
BE GENTLE.. the plastic will have become brittle over the years and will crack if you so much as look at them wrong. And of course, all of them have the locking tabs so nothing's easy. As a hint, use some soft rubber bands around the connector body to help you get a grip on them.

If still a problem, you know where to look.. cam sensor.
 
i replaced the fuel filter when i did the tune-up but i will try blowing the compressed air in the electrical plugs if it dont solve it then i will change the cam sensor like u suggested
 
had this problem with my 89 SC

My 89 SC used to buck me all over the road some days, and then others it would drive like a dream. I found out that the knock sensor was shot, and it was intermittantly changing the timing when it felt like it.

I changed the sensor and it ran fine.

Hope this helps
