so i drove to work today in the rain, and i went through like a 2" maybe 3" puddle, unable to avoid it. when i parked the car it idled kinda rough. didnt think anything of it. on my way home however it would run really rough when i was just cruising along and then threw a misfire code, havent been able to scan it yet cuz its in my brothers car, but are there any ideas here? im really hoping i didnt **** my opti up

well...i just scanned the codes...here they are...PO133- o2 sensor ckt slow response, PO141 o2 sensor heater circuit malfunction, PO300- misfiring...would these all be results of the maf being wet? possibly because i havent had the o2 sensors shut off since i put my ory in (although this is the first time its happened and ive had the ory on for over a month) or something else?

Scanned the codes again...now its just random misfiring...let the car idle and it threw the code just at idle...any other ideas as I'm beginning to think the maf being wet is out of the question

I'd be willing to bet with 90% certainty that is the cause of the rough idle. But I don't know what year car you have, to tell if it's a vented opti. The codes could be due to the wet opti and you're just not burning all the gas, creating rich exhaust. Alternatively it could be that with the O2, the cooler water shocked it, and killed it.
