Default Monte doesnt like the rain.

I love my Monte but it has developed a problem just recently. The car was driven through a puddle and now it sputters and acts like it is starved for fuel.
Does anyone have a suggestion where to start. I had one suggestion that the air filter may have gotten wet.

could be that, could be ignition as well

start with the air filter, how big was this puddle you drove through?? rained like crazy here yesterday, and i didn't have any problems, did you drive it into a lake?? lol..jk jk


check the air filter, then check fuel and ignition parts

Hi John & Welcome 2 the MCF
Sorry to read about your problems, I see that you are from OK.
I hope that you find your prob & that the weather improves in your area.
A minivan is partially submerged on a roadway flooded by an overflowing creek Tuesday in Shawnee, Oklahoma. A Monte Carlo just
drove thru like he was driv'in a boat.

Dont know what year monte you have
The first thing I would check or even think about replacing would be the spark plug wires
