Default Help!!! Water got into intake

Well I was driving home after taking one class of my driver improvment course and it was raining real hard outside and then came this big puddle of water that i had not seen and my car went into it and it started to choke and then turned off..so i tried to start the car and it wouldnt start until like the 5th time, after that when I drove the car home it seemed fine..Should I worry about it too much and If so what should i get checked out? thanks in advance

Take out your spark plugs and crank the engine a couple times, and see if it spits out any water.

Spray some WD-40 on the wires and distributor if it isn't starting.

I just took the car for a test drive and crossed over into the vtech many times and it seems fine except for on high rpms it makes some kinda weird noise..kinda like choking but not really

Im sure you never slipped up.... Dont be a dick about it.
I would be a little weary about driving it, especially hard. Im not sure what the high rpm stuttering could be. Is the car nice and warm when you rev it up that high?
