if you sucked up enough water to lock it how are we going to help fix it, we can't, only thing i can offer for you to do and no matter what i think your in bad shape, is to take the plugs out and crank that b***h over to shot the water outta the cylinders if it did get in there, but again i don't think nothing is going to help ya.

my advice is pull the plugs to see if you have any moisture down in your cylinders... and drain your oil to ..... to be completly safe ... drain the oil and pull the head. you must do this AS SOON AS possible.. you do NOT want your internals to rust.

btw did you just try to forj a river or what?

i did this to my car. just started it back up though about 10 minutes later and it started bogging out so i kept revving and it kept pumping white smoke out the exhaust, but getting better every time i gassed it. eventually all the while smoke blew out and my car wasn't bogging anymore and i just drove off....it's been fine since. don't push throttle when you go through a puddle.....glide!

if the battery is dead u might need a new one. take it to a 24 hr autozone and have them check it out.
