    last night i knew it was going to rain so i took off my cold air..i took it off because my under cover fell off and burn after racing (yea i knoe should have made sure it was on tight) but yea so i took off the cold air section of my intake...and i think it sucked in a little water...engine light is on...so is it the sensor on my intake? LMK if you guy know or have any ideas

    At least ur car runs, My is still bogging. I had a cai and went through the flooded streets, and yes....got stuck. Had to wait overnight to start it, runs but cels on and some ticking. T-bone here has a scanner to check the codes. Im gonna change my oil and check the plugs etc tomorrow

    heat it up real good and try to evaporate out the water. clear the codes and see if they come back. probably change your oil, since htere are breather hoses for the valve covers that connect to the intake.

    hope this works

    Don't ever clear codes without scanning to see what they are first. Otherwise you are attempting remedies without knowing the problem.
