Distributor Cap Location
Sorry for asking this because I know this is a ford truck site but today I was trying to clean some corrosion off my battery post on my ford fusion with water. Well when I went to crank it up it was slow to crank and it has absolutely no power, won't rev at all. From what I already knew, it seems like some moisture got in the distributor cap. Am I right and if I am were can I find the dang thing and how can I fix it? Again sorry for the non truck question but I can't much info anywhere else.

I am not familar with the years the fusion model covers, however I would be suprised if it has a distributor. should have coil pack(what your plug wires connect to instead of distributor) or COPs Every cylinder gets a Coil over the plug. So slow to start is that a slow turnover rpm or slow to fire on all 4? Do you have a strong battery? Not sure what you have going on but in my experience with 4 banger hondas when I sprayed them down at car wash they would run on 2 cylindersthen 3 then all 4 eventually. Water should just evaporate out especially this time of year with our low humidity. If you have no skip and no power I would disconnect the battery for fifiteen minutes to reset the ecu. Start there then work to proper voltage, clear air intake, etc. Good luck Brother!

Since this is a Ford truck site, we don't cover the Ford Fusion. But when I saw this thread yesterday, I decided to let it stay because we have no correct forum to move it to that covers the Fusion specifically.
I would suggest you find a Fusion forum where the members can help you diagnose your problem and get your vehicle running at optimum performance.
