Hey.
It's raining over here and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to go out and do an errand in my automobile. :y: I get to the bottleshop and I've got my lights on (it was raining heavily) and my radio and my windscreen wipers on full ball. I turn my windscreen wipers off since I'm undercover and I eventually purchase my alcohol and hop back in the car. I accelerate to leave and the car just DIES. The more acceleration, the more it dies.
I am thinking this is either from the huge pools of water I was driving through on the way there, or something to do with too much electricity being used. Or could it be from the water getting into the electrics?
Very intrigued to know why this happened.. as a similiar thing happened in a car wash I went through in my last corolla (will never do that again).
Cheers.
Edit: Should note that when I got out and pulled the accelerated cable from under the bonnet, it didn't die... it would rev fine if I did it that way.
