vehicle stalls when washed!!
well i'm usually asking questions about my 76 ford truck..but this time my my question is about mt 90 mustang..I just took the car out of storage ..had a new tranns put in it and got it ready to drive.. after tinkering with it i took it out for a spin to test the new trans and it worked fine. Then I went to the car wash to cleen the car..after I was done my car didn't start...I ended up flooding it out I cleaned a few plugs ..then it started and ran kinda funny...then after a day it ran like normal...2 days later I did the same thing..cleaned the car..left it running..and it stalled while cleaning it ..after about 20 min. it started and made a very loud pop(like a gun shot).. then it drove funny(some backfiring and missing after about 3000 rpm) after about 2 hours it drove fine.. I know my wires are in the right order....not shure what going on...any help would be greatly appreciated!! thanks tattoo Matt

Ignition coil and/or Ignition Module are getting wet.
Might be time to replace the Ignition coil. If the engine starts funny after being washed, try to blow heat dry the ignition coil and/or ignition module.
