Hey, first few days of ownership.
Washed the car today with a hose pipe and now it wont start, starter turns over so battery not dead just doesnt spark.
is it just a case of pulling all the plugs out and drying them and spraying with wd40? or are there any other places i need to dry out.
or do you just think i should leave her to dry out for a day.
help...lol its sunny and i want to drive!

Hang on... you used a hosepipe at the vents near the windscreen???? 
Serves you right!
Its naked under there, NEVER hose it at the vents!
Its like some chap a few years ago decided to take his cerbie through a car wash!!!!
needless to say, it took a few lads to push her out of there and then winched up onto the back of a lowloader! He never came back here, he must have sold her on not being content with handwashing!

Had to take the air intake out and wd40 all the plugs.
also the battery was almost flat--so need a trickle charger.
when re-assembling i neglected to route the washer cable away from the exhaust pipe comming off the engine.
nice melted mess there.
Glad it all happened really-- because i found that losts of screws/bolts were missing and some of the purple pipes had come loose.
so-- does anyone know the part number of the washer cable that joins the T ?
