i flooded my engine today, hit a deep puddle and the intake sucked it all in. it sputtered and died. started up and i got it home but its not as quick as it was before that. is there anything i need to do to make sure the engine is ok? thanks

Take the plugs out and crank the motor.. see if any water is still coming out..

Change the oil,filter, and do a tune up.
