dc5 base problem

[prusso]

hey guys
on the way home tonight in the rain, my integra dc5 (base auto model)
my car was running quite shit, the exhaust kept popping, felt like i was tail heavy and being pulled back, the revs kept bouncing, it kept happening in auto and manual mode, it felt like the computer was trying to select the gear but couldnt make up its mind, could this be a problem, or could it be an exhaust problem, gear problem or perhaps water getting into the cai cos the rain was extremely heavy...
any help would be appreciated (service was done about 500kms ago, exhaust put on about 350 kms ago)
thanks

Just sounds like you have got a bit of water near the coil pack/spark plugs (how i dont know). It could dry out by it self on the other hand the tubes the spark plugs go down may have a fair bit of water therefore you will have to get the water out with a hand pump or bike pump. If their is only a little moisture around the plugs then spray some WD40 round the plugs. Or maybe you have got a wet filter...
