OK,so i started by putting a some windsheild wipper fluid in(and yes it was in the right area)but a small small amount of fluid did drip down next to it.My boss said i could have shorted the computer chip. because about 30 min afterwards, the car started shaking and was shaking when i drove slower and when it was idle,and especially when i was backing up.The cap on the windshield wiper fluid thing was off,so my dad said it could be a vacuum problem.And when i taked to my machanic he said it could be a valve or misfiring....does ANYONE have any ideas?????i feel lost
 
Don't panic , allow the car to sit either in the sun awhile with hood open or have the car idling warming up and drying out bec it could be just moister that caused the short and once it dries out the vehicle will go probably back to normal.So before spending any money it be sure you try this bec many times even rain or driving through puddles can cause such problems but once it dries off the car does go back to normal , also many times when ppl try to wash the engine etc this type of problem occurs too.

Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way if you've access to a heater garage that be your best bet too.
Also don't feel badly bec many times fluids spill like this and it's really no big deal , plus really it's a design flaw bec moister shouldn't be able to get into such components but on many vehicles it doe's.
