Dave,

Chances are things will be OK when everything dries out. 
You could try taking apart every connection that is easy to 
get to, checking it for moisture, maybe spray it with WD 40 
and then putting it back together.

Check the spark plug wells for moisture front AND back.  You 
can get to the back plugs without taking off the manifold. 
Just be careful pulling up the wires, don't pull on the 
wire, but try to get some leverage on the big square portion.

I have washed engines for 40 years, and never had more than 
a temporary problem.

Now my ALT light is flickering, My Motel 6 light (ABS) It'll leave the light on for ya.....all the time. is flickering the AIR BAG is doing the same thing.
