You'll probably have to unplug just about every connector that you can and spray it with wd40 or similar, which will evaporate the moisture from it. Air it out well and reconnect with di-electric grease. The body harnesses and certain engine connectors will be a biatch...hopefully the carpet is still removed. Now is a good time to invest in a new EFI harness, if you haven't already. Not sure how you're going to get the moisture out of the computer modules. ECU is easy enough to open up to check but the other modules don't appear to be servicable. Wouldn't be a bad idea to see if you can get some replacement modules from parted out cars..I think I may have some of them I'm willing to sell you. Anti theft, Cruise control, ecu, fuel pump, and other modules. Good luck, hope you get her running right! ________________Sig Separator________________________ Parting out my entire 1990 twin turbo!
