My husband and I took our Jeep off-roading last night and he took it into a puddle that was a little bigger than it looked.  It was fine the first time, on the outer edge of the puddle, but the second time we went a little too deep.  We got it home, but it was acting funny.  Now, the Jeep won't run at all.  Please HELP!  Any advice would be great.

It could be the distributor got wet. If thats the case then wipe it clean and spray with wd-40

Thank you for the advice!


He's up and running again.  Like you said, the distributor was a little wet.  We also changed the oil (per the advice of one of our good off-roading buddies), put in a new air filter (needed a new one anyway!), etc...


We took him out 4-bying this weekend without a problem... well, came a little close to a cliff edge.
