Water in Spark Plug Holes >.<

[xSojooxShotzx]

Well,

Me and my friend thought it would be great to clean our engines... He parked his lovely Subaru SVX next to my Talon, and we both sprayed on the engine degreaser and we sat down to play some X-Box while we were waitting. We rinsed our engines with a hose and then we started our engines to make sure they dried okay. His Subaru SVX started JUUUUSSSST fine, but mine wouldn't start at all...

Little did my feable mind know, the little plastic case on top of the spark plug wires wasn't waterproof, and was waterlogged... I did the best I could to take out the water and it runs now. It just doesn't sound the same, even though the holes are dry.

Is there anything that might've gone wrong? What can I do to fix it if there IS somethign wrong?

Thanks!
Howie~

My friend did this to his probe. His spark plug wires let the water past. You will most likely need new wires and/or plugs. Just let it dry out over night or put a fan up real close to it. Trust me, don't try to sop up the water wth cotton balls...big no no.

You could pull the plugs and wires and then put a rag over the spark plug holes and try to start the car. It'll all shoot up on the rag. You'd probably want to pull the MPI fuse to disable fuel also. But I would get new plugs at least, and wires if they're old.

No joke?

Just a little bit of water and now I need to buy new plugs and wires?

I agree with Dream On....

....replace the plugs and wires....

Yea most of us dont pour water over our motors. New plugs/wires at minimum.

you really should look into seafoam.

DId that and I regretted it, I had the worst misfire ever, new plugs and wires like they said.
