Subject: 16V Engine sputtering after rain
i got caught by heavy rain yesterday.Couple of hrs later i tried to =
start the car, it starts fine, 5-10 seconds later, the engines sputters, =
shakes , tried to give it throtle , nothing, but if i close the fuel =
enrichment switch, it idles OK. When the engine sputters , the DPR =
current goes to 0, the DPR measured 20 Ohms , it should be ok, idle =
stabilizer valve get voltage, hums.Transfer pump buzzes when turning =
key, main pump isn't loud.i pulled two injectors and they don't spray =
when cranking, i thought that was weird. The engine has the same sputter =
as it does when you unplug the jetronic box.It's still doing today, so =
if it was water that got somewhere, it should be dry. Anybody else had =
that happened to them?
