I have a 2000 Saleen S/C and I thought I might get a quicker response posting here. Was detailing my engine today using 50/50 mixture of water and simple green and an engine detailer called CEB1 by Gunk. I avoided everything I was suppose to avoid the best I could. Now my car surges some when idling, but the real problem is it bogs down when I get on it. Normal driving it does fine, but when I put it to the floor and the S/C kicks in the boost gauge jumps to 5psi (running w/ 10lbs pulley) and it bogs down. I've been done for about 4 hrs so water should be dried out by now, I just wonder if the CEB1 detailer got into something, but what? Any ideas? thanks Josh

Any CELs? Do you know if water got into your boots?

 

i smell a spark plug problem

 

check the filter see if that got soaked

 

I think its the plugs just took a ride and it seems to be getting better. It did it again, but not as bad. Anymore suggestions?

 

Sounds like the car is shot. I'll tell ya what. I'll be a nice guy and just take it off your hands for you... Problem solved

 

Get new wires.

 

hmm...just let me borrow it for a day or 2 and ill figure it out...
but anyways...yea check the spark plugs or wires, they might of got wet and went crazy, let it set out in the sun to see if drying will help anymore, if not just do a tuneup.

 

i have the same problem when i wash my engine. you got a little water in one of your spark plugs. give it a day it should dry out.
