I bought some new engine cleaner today. I read the instructions and it said i didn't need to cover anything, so i didn't. After rinsing i went to drive my car to dry it and now it runs like ****. mostly under load, like acceleration and **** but ideling also. Someone please tell me what to do.

run the **** out of it and itll clear up... or well it should... you just need to burn the water off in the engine... theres not a lot in there to worry about

Thanks, how long do you think it should take to dry out and run normal again

well no water could have gotten in the cold air intake i have and the can said it was safe for all parts of the engine, just to limit the amount of rinse water, and i didn't spray much anywhere besides the head and the valve cover.

it doesnt matter.... i gaurentee you got water in the dizzy.... pop the cap and blow it out.

drew102

alright thanks man

slambedcivic

yup

i went and dried out the dizzy, yes there was water in there. It still runs very odd, like extremely lacking power, when you stomp it down it shakes but not like a wheel shake and engine shake, someone help me. It also sounds like it backfires when it idels.

pull your plug wires out and blow them out as well... the spark plug boots that is

i dried them out to they were pretty wet though so maybe i just need to let them dry out on there own. but i really don't know
