I have a 1998 grand cherokee with 93,000 miles 5.2l last week I hit a puddle and stalled the engine. (ok it wasn't exactly a puddle- more like a rain pond full of mud but mostly water). It started right back up with out any problems exept a knocking in the engine compartment. I cannot feel it in the truck on drive train, only hear it, it sounds like something hitting the fan. I can find nothing out of place, foriegn or loose to make noise. The check engine light cme on about 20 miles later- (the key thing does not seem to work). I have normal temp and oil pressure. normal gas milage and the engine runs just as before, smooth and fast without any hesitation. The knock is related to engine speed and sound the same in/out of gear moving or not. I'm assuming I may have got a little water in the intake causing it to stall. Any help with the key code retrival or ideas to look at ?
