Engine was cool.
Covered Alt and K&N Air filter
Sprayed engine off with water.
Sprayed Simple green all over engine bay.
Sprayed engine bay off again.
Wiped off all water that I could.

Drove the truck about 30 miles to a friends house and not a problem.
Truck sat for two hours
Started engine and engine light was on.
Pinged really bad when I push down on the trottle.

Was getting TPS P123 / P122 and P108.

I cleared the codes 4 times and they went away.

Would these sensor fail from the water?
Did I do any permament damage?
These trucks are that sentive to water in the engine bay?

2000 C3500 5.7

No more engine codes but now the vehicle wants to idle between
1500 and 2000 rpm even when really hot.

I removed the idle screw so that is not the problem.

The computer keeps adjusting the idle.

What is the world is it doing?
