So after taking my car to the car wash and giving it a nice cleaning i start it up and it runs fine then all of the sudden it starts shaking all weird,i then start heading home and theres power but not as much as it usually has,Its throwing a Check engine light now, and when i give it gas it sounds like a subaru WTF!!!:bawling:
 
but i didnt spray anything under the hood,but that could be possible that something did get wet cuz when i turned the truck on my radio was off and the radio settings got reset,could that be the problem? i hope its not something bigger,what would cause it to run like a subaru and throw a CEL?
 
the shaking and loss of power sounds like its misfiring pretty bad on one cylinder. Pull the codes and see what it says. I say this mainly because it sounds an awful lot like my symptoms.

What exactly do you mean by running like a subaru?

Has this just happened once or did it start a little while ago? i.e. how many times have you driven it since it started?
