i was cleaning my engine bay just the other day and maybe a day after i started her up again and it wasnt sounding very good. so i check the sparkplugs and i found out that a bit of water leaked into the sparkplug area.. now my car feels like its bogging and i can barely make it up hills in 3rd gear what should i do and how can i fix this???

 

bump

 

dunno about the bogging thing, but you could try climbing in second...

haha try that and/or ..Use an air hose and a paper towel and blow the water out... then get some dialectic grease and spread it over the tip of the sparkplug and inside the sparkplug boot then reconnect them...

 

ive had this happen to my engice TWICE. both times they were not my fault, but also both times i had to fix it. all i did was get a chopstick and a strong durable paper towel (those thick strong ones compared to those conventional thin ones that are prone to rip when wet) wrap it slightly with the chopstick, dip, poke around, pull, and rinse. after i could not remove anymore water from my method, i would leave the smark plugs off overnight to air out the holes.

*WARNING* this was my method and it worked for my twice. if you dont think it's a good idea, dont do it...

 

thanks guys ill try this
