Hey Adam,
do you have an aftermarket intake system? if it sucked water in, it can cause what you're currently experiencing. Pop the hood and make sure the water filter didn't get soaked. Next, check your MAF sensor, if that gets wet it can also cause issues. |

just found that out I think the spark plugs may have went bad
that doesn't really make sense to be honest. |
Do you mean the MAF sensor? Did you wash the engine compartment? Because that would definitely do it...

Pictures?
If that's the case I wonder how the car ran before car wash. |

And when you say ripped out, do you mean the plug is disconnected or someone cut the wires?
