KR- Why don't you first try taking the cop's off 1 by 1 and drying the hole and the boot out good with compressed air, then using plenty of dialectric grease on the boots when you put them back on. You may luck out and it will be OK. If it is the dialectric grease will keep the water out the next time. If your not so lucky the arcing may have wiped out a cop. If it did, since it's a '01, I would suggest you consider getting the Globel cop's online for less than $100. for the set and replace them all. Whether you luck out with yours or replace them, use the dialectric grease liberally on the boots so that they don't arc inside and so that water doesn't get past the cop. If you try and drive it to dry it out, it likely won't be successful and will cause arcing that WILL destroy the cop's if they aren't already. Good Luck!

Hi king ranch

Had the P2006 code too that means that intake valves on bank 2 stay closed.

I changed the CMCV that is between the intake manifold and the firewall.

This was a 2 hours job and solved my problem.

BAST.
