Trouble after underbody spray at car wash
Guys, been having an issue for the past 3 weeks. Whenever I run the truck, 2008 XLT 5.4, through the wash with underbody spray and leave, I'm experiencing what feels like hesitation or surging of power. The RPMs don't change, but feels just weird. No codes thrown.
Will return to normal if the truck sits for 15-30 minutes.
I'm thinking something electrical like transmission speed sensor retaining water...any ideas?

Check your FPDM for cracks or corrosion. It's located above the spare tire. Drop the spare and then remove the 2 bolts holding the FPDM so you can inspect. New ones about $59 on Amazon or more at your local auto parts.

check under the engine and start gently tugging on wires to see if one is loose. They are all sealed with rubber gaskets, so there is a possibility one isn't plugged in all the way and allowing moisture in. Also, is the air intake tube connected correctly? Possibly getting water in the tb?
