Subject:Help:No start AFTER ENG WASH
From:mark keller

Well I'm in the ditch so to speak.  It seems after power washing my engine
and under carriage I have a no start.

I removed the air cleaner, stuffed a rag in the intake, dryed the distrb
afterward.  Removed the wire connectero from most everything dryed and
reinstalled. Still no pop. Fuel pump runs, gas smells.

I'm going back out to the wash rack with some tools, and compressed air to
re do it all again.

Seems there is a gizmo, TPC or throttle closed cut out,  beneath the
throttle body, I'll need to remove the body to get it aired out.

Suggestions appreciated. TIA
