How about hot restarts? How about after 1 hour? Anything other symptoms or descriptions?
Keeping in mind the wet electrical hypothesis, I would also pull apart all the connections in the engine compartment, inspect them carefully, spray them with silicone or white lithium grease, and then plug them together a couple times to make sure the connections are good.

Hi PeteKZ,
Thank you for your input. In starts ok, and continues to run. It is just rough running and not as responsive when driving, low power. You can hear and feel that it is not running right. At idle it shakes.
I did some more inspection, I disconnected and reconnected the engine harness connection at back of engine, that seemed fine. I didn't spray anything in there though.
Could have water got into the main top boot of the CIS system causing anything. I just cant see behind the top of the CIS to understand what could have got wet back there.
The only thing I'm 100% sure about is that it is directly related to something getting wet. ugh.
Anymore last minute ideas? Any other connections to look at? Going to mechanic tomorrow, Friday morning.
Thanks,
Rodney
