hey guys whats up i just used some gunk degreaser and cleaned my engine bay to i didnt just spray it all over i just spray certain places then use a cloth with some water and wipe it off to get off the grease and dirt...but now i go and start the car it starts but when the rpm is at about 700 to 2500 the car acts like its fighting to stay started...its acting like its gonna shut off...and when its at idle i go to the exhaust and i hear its doing some different chips like rev changing from the exhaust...and it sounds a bit toned not like the normal smooth exhaust.any idea are welcomed

 

it's in failsafe mode, did you disconnect anything when you cleaned?

 

could be water down byt the coil area.... i had problems with that

 

oh ok...so all i gotto do is recheck the connections and blow out the connections then right....

 

MAF?

give the car a little while to dry out and see what happens.

 

Probably water shorting out the ignition someplace. Let it dry in the sun or blow it off with air.

 

ill try that and see how it goes thanks guys

 

WHAT is MAF?

 

mass air flow...that in other words air flow meter

 

ohh thanks. I guess that was a Noob question. LOL.

 

Big round thing in your air inlet hose.
