i washed my motor with some cleaner about 2 weeks ago.. i had it shut off and a bag over my new intake... but when i went to start it after i had it washed off it didnt wanna start and it was acting like it was loading up... been running ok till today on my way home from work... when i went to the hit gas it kinda bogged down and made a crappy sound like a vw beetle sounds ... if i drive at 3k its ok but when i punch it harder than that it starts that noise and has no power.... any ideas what all it may be ??? any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I washed my motor once and it ran like shit too, until i looked in the plug holes and they were filled with water :eek2:

did that and there fine.... checked the cap and it has a lil bit of carbon residue on it but ok.... im going crazy....

don't just check the caps. Look DOWN in where the Plugs are you may find water. I can't think of anything else that wouldmake your engine bob like that.

check your plugs. if its water in the plugs do not remove em. just blow some pressurized air down there and get out as much as u can. face your car towards the sun and leave the hood open. check your cap and rotor. if you heavily soaked it some times the connection on the red plug gets corroded.

stratton.

haha, wipe your engine dont spray it! my friend did the same thing, wouldnt listen to me untill i made him yank out the wires and he saw them full of water and 4 spark plugs shot.

Yeah man listen to these guys, i would change my spark plug wires than if its no better, change the plugs too, make sure its all dry down there....same thing happened too me...

I just let my car idle for about 10 mins after washing my motor. It backfired and barely idled but then it finally cleared up. Consider this a good time to go get yourself some new NGK plugs and wires.:biggthump

theres a lil condensation in there but no water... its like its sucking alot of air and its trying to compensate my giving more fuel.. at the ass end of the car smells like i been pumping gas for an hr... but y all of a sudden would it start to do this though??

its most likely water in the wires or spark plus holes and yes water can get into wires!

i found that there is condensation on the plug wires and i mine as well get a cap and new plugs.... thanks for all the help all.... hopefully that will fix my problems..

maybe you're burning oil, are your exhaust fumes blue?

Yeh, compressed air works wonders! Also, check the wires to the coil.

As stated already above...

1. check your plugs
2. check your wires
3. check your cap & rotor

If need be blow out any water that might have gotten to the plugs and or change them.

a shopvac some duct tape and a straw will do wonders for water in the plug holes

ghetto! /\ but would work :D

#1 galley has water in it...

Yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
