Well, I messed up big time today. We had a big storm hit us and I was unintentionally went through a rather large puddle of water. The car stalled out and I limped it home. The car sounds like SH!T, I pulled out the K&N airfilter and dried it out and reinstalled. It doesn't sound much better. I tried to let it idle for a while hoping to burn out some of the water that may have been trapped in the intake. After running the car for about 15 mins I decided to see what the oil looked like. It looks just like the mud puddle I drove through. Thankfully, I have been using mobil 1 synthetic. But, the oil still has an awful look to it. Is the engine in jeporady now? I plan on changing the oil tomorrow and looking at the plugs, will driving the car a short distance cause more harm? I need some serious advice as to what damage this might of caused, and is it fatal or just temporary? Any other corrective actions I should consider?
Thanks,
Tom W
