Washed engine, now it won't run right?
really need some help! I washed my engine and covered the coil and breather up. Put two cans of degreaser on it and sprayed it all off. Now it won't idle and has a huge miss in it? The car ran perfect before then. Checked the plug wires and all connecters. Any ideas? Thanks

You got the throttle position sensor wet, don't do that. Is the idle surging over a wide range of RPM's? Does it lack power when hitting the gas? Replace the TPS and don't get it wet again.
