Car is jerky under 2K

I have a 96 lt1 with an M6. Now when im under 2000rpm in the higher gears the car starts jerking when i accelerate. This started last week after I went through an automatic car wash with an underbody spray (it was free). Any ideas what this would be.

Well, it could be the optispark. (distributor)
It really doesn't like moisture and the underbody spray isn't too good of an idea considering its location.

I get a similar hesitation, it just started recently, but I have done nothing to get the opti wet.
