Car cutting out help

2001 ex just got done cleaning the whole engine bay, and now when I'm going sometimes i lose allllll power until my car dies or i turn it off and roll start it then its fine for a little while then will do the same thing. i think i got water in a connector thats keeping it from having a good connection or something,so i was wondering if you guys had any other ideas or just let it completely dry out and see what happens.

Re: Car cutting out help

I have a 01 ex too an i wash my engine bay twice a month. for a while i had an issue where the car would randomly sputter an die out but it was caused by a ground issue. i added an additional ground from the battery to the header bolt an i never had the issue again. try the ground c if that helps.
