Throttle problem cropped up after wash.

Hey guys!
I'm in the middle of my Eureka Springs trip, and the old Box did beautifully the whole way. Carved the mountains giggling like a kid!
However it stormed last night up here and I took the car to the car wash to hose off the pine needles and such, and when I pulled out of the bay, the throttle suddenly started revving to 2500, then making a pop! noise, and dropping to 1000. And just does this over and over. A bit nerve rattling driving slow in close quarters.
I'm assuming something got wet.
I'm at the car show now and will see if it still does it after it dries off.
Perhaps of note: a small split in the back window let a dribble of water run down the shelf carpet.
Any ideas? Could my computer have gotten wet? TPS?
Thanks!
