gasket and spark plugs. I had a lot of oil and gunk
that built up in my car. My mechanic wanted to
clean my car with degreased and a power washer.
He took the battery out before power washing. My
car worked fine after that. I found that my check
engine light was coming on because old dirty,
gunk and oil was dripping on to my up stream 02
sensors. After cleaning the 02 sensors, he took the
check engine light off and I drove it around for an
hour and it never came back on. I let it sit for eight
hours and I checked my oil level and it was full
since I just went to jiffy lube two days prior. I started
my car and the car took a second to accelerate
but I got to work thirty minutes away. The car was
struggling a little whenever I tried to accelerate and
I had to step on the gas a little harder. I parked it at
work for three hours and when I went for my lunch
break, I turned the car on but when I tried to
switch to drive and step on the gas, the car would
not move. Where I was parked was also on a small
slanted hill and when I put it drive, it kept rolling
backwards.
Does anyone know if this may be caused by too
much water getting on a sensor, plug, spark plug
valley, or intake? Also, if this is a transmission
problem, how is the power washer and degreaser
related? Do you think my transmission really
broke?
