are you missfiring?? which feels like the engine is shaking like crazy.

if so then one or more of the cylinders isnt sparking cause probably water got to one or more of the spark plugs... or you got the actual distributor wet... just dry it all as best as possible... then let it air dry a lil while then start it up.

1. Always: cover your distributer when you spray your engine compartment with water...

2. Also do you think you sucked up water into the intake /cylinders...

3. Are you flashing any codes

check to see if any water went into your spark plug holes, if it did stuff some paper towels down there and dry it all up.

OR...use compressed air to get the majority of the water out and then use a halogen floodlight to get the last drops out cause the heat from the light will dry it out. (remember the compressed air probably has a slight bit of moisture in it unless you have a device to take out the moisture - like for painting) The lights heat will get rid of that.
