ok i was driving on the highway and there was alot of rain and i get off at an exit. i shift to neutral and wait for the light to change. it turns green and i put it into first and i hear a popping sound and i have to push down harder on the accelerator to go and the check engine light came on. when i shift gears the car jerks ALOT more than it normally does. i dont know if the belt is wet or water got on the battery. help

 

do you have a cold air kit you might have hydro locked the motor

 

yeah i do actually. its weird cause it takes a while to respond when i push the gas lightly cause all it does is pop

 

is your air filter in the fender well

 

i have a short filter though. its not close to the fender. it didnt feel wet but i cant really tell right now.

 

you might want to take your spark plugs out and see if they have water on them

 

i was thinking of doing that in the morning when it gets dry. im worried about the cost if its serious cause i dont have the time to fix it by myself

 

check and see if you have water in the motor when you take the plugs out good luck
