My 2 cents here....
If the engine drank some whater, it's likely you need an O2 sensor or all of them quite possibly. This could also cause problems with the MAF as well
Drowning an engine in mud and water causes all sorts of problems for things under the hood. Especially Alternators and Voltage Regulators. I believe the voltage regulator is part of the alternator in you model so just pull the unit and take it to the parts store and have them test it. almostclueless is hitting the mark here and low voltage can cause really wierd problems like this. If the system doesn't have sufficient voltage supply it can't properly judge the smaller voltages from the sensors.
I would start by checking codes. Then cleaning the MAF or better yet, replacing it with a known good one. If you have some O2 sensors you could swap in that would take the guess work out of some of it.
Have you checked the ignition wires? Water in the connectors could cause this. When the engine revs the spark frequency gets shorter and harder to control if the insulation isn't up to par.
Good luck
