This morning I washed my car from head to toe. I spent a lot of time washing the wheels, but never sprayed inside the engine bay.

Note: I have an AEM intake

I go to start the beast and the engine sputters and dies. I start it again and it sputters, barely making it into the garage.

First: I pulled off the bumper, removed the intake cones and let it dry. Now it starts, idles for a minute, bogs down on its own and dies.

I have pulled the MAF sensors and am drying them as well.

My question: WHAT ELSE SHOULD I DO and is an immediate oil change necessary?!?!

Thank you.
