Subject:      Help:No start AFTER ENG WASH
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

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 Mark Keller 91 Carat WLE Lazarus.
