Sigh, so I'm an idiot and was driving around with my CAI after a rainstorm and didn't see a puddle. After I got through I stalled and drifted over to the right. Its happened to me once before and so I waited like 10min and started the car. Took a second and a big cloud of steam rolled out the back and it started right up. Drove it for a while then and afterwards with no problems whatsoever.
Jump to today:
4 days later, after driving the car a fair distance following the puddle. Im driving around and i notice my accelerator seems to almost stick after I take my foot off the gas. I'll take my foot off the gas and the engine will still rev up. I'll knock it into 5th gear and it'll slow down, back into neutral and it'll slowly rev up again. No other issues that i've seen/heard (sounds, poor acc, etc).
My friend's first impression was that perhaps its a linkage problem? Got some water/rust going in the cabling? I checked the oil and it doesnt look like its either a) very high or b) watery as I've seen mentioned in hydrolocking posts on here.
Anyone got any ideas? Should I just take it to a repair center and take the grief they give me about having the CAI? (dont know where I put the stock intake)
