Water In Engine, ----!!!??? - FIXED!!!
OK heres the story, I has been raining like *** for the past 2 days, the streets were flooded. I didnt want to but i had to go see the doctor for my back(Work ordered). As of now I had a cold air intake(I know, dumb *** :-\). I couldnt put the short stack on because of my ------- back. NE way, I hit a puddle of water and sucked water in my engine! The car died imedietly and I let it coast into a parking lot so I coluld check the damage. Well luckily it didn't blow a hole through my block(happend to a friend). I pulled off the intake and put my finger in the manifold, water, not alot but enough to keep the car from starting. I car will only catch/run for a sec then dies. So, my question is, What the ---- do I do now. I was suposed to put my turbo in on monday, now I gotta deal w/ this ----. what can I do? I heard PB blaster sprayed into the distributer can help start a wet motor but how does this work, how do I do it? Someone please help :'(

try to take out the spark plugs, then crank the car with someone outside to see what happens. If you are lucky like I was, you will see water shooting out from the cylinders from the spark plug holes, if you see some, good, nothing bad happened, keep doing it until nothing come out.
Check your oil, make sure there's no water down there. replace the spark plugs and try to turn on the car. If it works you are saved.
It happened to me, and the engine ran strongs after that. keep us posted
