Re: WATER IN CAR (d16spooler)
when water mixes with oil it destroys the lubrication properties in oil, highest point of friction will most likely be destroyed first, rod/main bearings, thus explaining your knock that increases with engine speed. so there is pretty much no way to band-aid fix this one. sorry man

More than likely you bent a rod and more than likely it's going to shoot through the side of your block.
If you want to drive it and avoid doing that, do NOT rev the motor up high...eventually it will give, but if you don't rev it as hard then you won't put as much stress on the engine and it MAY last longer.
