brought my car for a machine wash a shell yesterday and when for some games at safra, when coming back to start the car my car wont start and a misfired occured at the exhaust system. Any idea what causes the problem? when the engine finally start after a long crank . the engine isnt smooth in running and need to press oil in order to let the engine run and this last for 2 mins before i can let go of my accelerator.

wet ignition

[D23tkh]

what do you mean?

[Yongwd]

water might have seep into ignition leads or distributor which will cause ignition not firing up, thus idle like a 3 cylinder engine

[D23tkh]

so will problem occured?

[Yongwd]

let it warm up.. unless u know how to dry the leads

 

drive slowly

 

have fun

[D23tkh]

so after it dries up it be okie?

If your car is carburettor-based, look at water within your distributor ....

 

Could also be wet ignition coils or even wet air filters.

 

Once it dries, it should be ok.
