Cant seem to figure out whats wrong with the car
Yesterday i sprayed some engine cleaner and pressure rinsed it after, ever since my car will idle really low, it wont warm up, it wont rev up more than 3-3.5K when in load, it sounds like it is missing. So i let the car sit for over night ( close to freezing temperature). Today i took the first two plugs and no sign of water so i didnt go deeper, i had plug wires out of the distributor for a few hours. i drove the car for sometime to finally get it to warm up, then i drove the car around for 10 miles i was easy on the car the whole time, 2-3 K RPM. But i tried to drive the car on WOT and the water temp would start falling down with in a few seconds so i let go and let the car come back to normal temp.
I cant seem to understand where the problem is,
Currently i unhooked MAF, IGNITOR, and airfilter is out of the car and im gonna let it sit for today and see if i can get it to run right tomorrow.
Any inputs from anyone?

you do have to be extra cautious when washing a 2jz, i wouldnt assume the other 4 plugs are dry just because the front 2 were. In my experience if you didnt cover up your maf and plugs its likely one or both of those. especially with the not being able to load over 3.5k rpm sounds like a maf issue

So today i tried to start the car without the MAF, it died with in a few seconds. Then i pluuged MAF and started it and it still idled really bad. So i straight away jumped on the plugs, i took out the last two plugs and they were slightly wet, so i took them out and let them sit, but for some reason i cant get my intake manifold off to get to the two plugs in middle. One bolt i cant get loose cus its way in there, any trick for this? or just a longer socket?

So today i manged to get everything apart, the plug in middle was SOAKING like a Mothafuka!
My intake manifold is all Black, looks really greasy/ dirty. Is that normal or should i spray something in there before i put everything back together? Also is a good idea to change all plug wires since i broke one accidentally.
Thanks!
