Car bogs out when I floor it Sign In

I have a 92 ford mustang. I got my air filter wet and now when ever I floor it. It bogs out it's like it's not getting enough air or fuel. Can anybody help me out to see what the problem.

You dodged a bullet there. If the air filter hadn't stopped that water, you could be looking at a new engine. You probably messed up the Mass Air flow sensor with the water.

Agree - but if that air filter is still in there it needs to go. Many can swell up and airflow restricted. You can roughly clean an air filter in a jam with compressed air but not wash it out,

Okay thanks. Because it still runs and everything just I don't have the power I should have. Like when I put the pedel half way it's fine but once I go over half it bogs but doesn't stall or anything.

You might want to check for a clogged Converter too before changing the sensor.
