I have done a very bad thing.
I washed the entire engine bay of my car with a high pressure washer.
Now the timing and steering are out of wack. I'm pretty sure the timing problem is due to the water that may have leaked in, but I don't know why the steering is f#&ked. When I try to do a hard turn, the a/c, engine, battery, anit lock lights come on. Please help!
 
Sounds like you got some water in your fuse box. Start checking your electrical system out.
 
Thanks, but I think I know the problem.
I remember that after I finished cleaning the engine I noticed that the bag I used to cover the intake was moved. I think that water got into the intake and went through the engine. Is there anything I can do or do I have to take it to a shop to have it checked?
