Default I washed my engine. Bad thing to do!

I washed my engine and engine bay, now my 91 Turbo runs like its hitting on 3 cylinders. What do I do? It was washed two days ago, and still wont run right. Did I mess something up? Input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Remove the spark plug wires and blow out the water thats accumulated in the spark plug wells. Im not sure about the turbo but on the NA's you have to remove the throlle body to get to two of them.

Default I think I am in trouble..

I pulled my plug wire, and the whole middle was full of water! Is that from my washing, or did I blow a head gasket?

Ran better, but I drove it around the block, and it started missing again. pulled the first plug wire again...and the water is back! Head Gasket Blown? I would kick my own butt if I could reach it! lol

Dont jump to say that you have a BHG because you would not be getting water in the spark plug area. You probably have a coolant plug head leak. Here is how to fix it.
