I have a LS integra and i was wonderin y my car won't start because i ran into a puddle. I'm trying to figure out what happened but i can't. It isn't the battery or the alternator....so please someone help me see wat's wrong wit my car.

 

Do you have a cold air intake...?

 

hope it didnt hydro lock

 

yea i a cold air intake...my cousin said it didnt hydrolock

 

my cousin said it didnt hydrolock

 

Not to be an ***, but how does he know? Did the motor just stop when you hit the puddle? Is there water all over the place that could short something, or cause the spark to ground out? Is the distributor wet? Does it crank? Try taking out the plugs and looking for water.

 

I drove down bout a few feet and it then stopped, then there was water all over the place...but we looked at the engine bout couple of days later...it doesnt crank but it does click when i turned the ignition

 

I call hydrolocked, cuz when you expect the worst, you can never be disappointed.

 

thnx neway cya

your cousin is wrong, sorry.

your engine is full of water thats why it wont crank, remove the spark plugs, lay towels down all over the bay, crank the engine till all the water is out, replace the spark plugs (make sure they are dry) and pray the engine is OK

sounds like your gonna need a new engine.

 

open distibutor cap and take wires off plugs leave open to dry over night make sure no water got into engine and diluted your oil or youll blow a rod out the side of your block i know because my girl friend did it to my factory motor
