sho wont run

[tfalconier]

i have a 90 sho, its got 98,000 miles on it, 5 speed, its been sitting for a while, the 02 sensor used to be disconnected, and it used to start up and run and everything, i hosed the whole motor off, and pluged the 02 sensor in, and it doesnt run, it starts up and runs for a second and when i try to give it gas itll die, what do you think the problem is? i cleaned up the first 3 plugs with starting fluid and blew them off, and i put started fluid in the Tb and it makes it kick, i also tried it when the 02 unplugged, whats the deal?

Maybe, but I doubt it. Washing an engine is not a big deal IF you are prepared to address any possible consequences. Remember, this engine was designed and built to withstand wet environments. That being said, I would pull the CCRM/IRCM module, take it inside and put it on a heat register overnight. It may no longer be waterproof and may have allowed water to infiltrate causing a failure.

Best thing to do is to see if there are any codes store. Inspect the connectors for the MAF, ISC, and everything else to see if any are unplugged.

Did you check the rear plugs? Could have water in there.
