car problem

the other day i went through some puddles and ithink i just got some water in my engine or tranny cuz whenever i would shift the shifter would shake pretty bad, so i letit sit and dry out for a day and now when i shift, the shifters not shaking but feels like the car jumping kinda through every gear. my dad says he thinks its probably the fuel injectors. what do yall think it might be?

Check the air filter and intake. It's possible you sucked up some water throught the intake especially if you have a CAI that goes into the fenderwell. Or you could just need to clean your MAF. Don't see how it would be possible to get it into the tranny though.

RE: car problem

Get some MAF cleaner at the auto parts or some brake clean will work too. Just spray the wire in the MAF. You'll have to remove the air box and filter to get to it.
