300SE Will Not Start?
Recently washed the engine compartment (avoided spraying the engine directly) to remove road salt. Didn't start the car after spraying the engine compartment and let the car sit for about a day & a 1/2 in about 35-45 degree temps. When I finally tried to start it it wouldn't. It turns over easily but gives absolutely no indication that it wants to start? I checked for a spark at the coil and a couple of spark plugs and it is getting a nice spark. Removed the distributor cap and both the cap and rotor are in great shape. I sprayed starter fluid into the air intake and it still gave no indication that it wanted to start. I am at a loss?!?!? The Bosch Ingition Control Module is mounted on the drives side wheel housing and I got that wet (had it wet before) as I washed the salt off. It apears to be a completely sealed unit and I can't tell if it is working or not? I have checked all the fuzes to include the 10 amp one in a relay next to the master cylinder. Anyone with some advice?
Details on the car; 1988 300SE 3.0 Liter with 196,000+ miles and most recently replaced the fuel pump.
