I was washing my car today and thought i might as well wash the engine bay as well. I sprayed it off for a good 3-5 mins. After i was done i went to turn on my car and the car started sputtering really bad on accel. I thought it felt like a bad plug, so i pulled the wire out of all of them to my horror i found they were full of water.

What did i do to my precious car? PLEASE HELP!!!

:lol: I bet once it drys it'll run just as good as before.

I sometimes clean my engines with a pressure washer as well. Havnt caused a problem yet.

Blow out the spark plug shafts with compressed air.
Problem solved.
