I'm sure I'm not the only one on here who's a little curious as to what it was and what they did to fix it?

they took the spark plugs out and sprayed wd-40 down all the cylinders and cranked the car so all the water can vaporize and exit and they did that until there was no more water in the engine then they replaced the spark plugs and it started right up...

That's a cool idea -- WD-40 so the rings don't seize I guess.

This is the first "water injested" motor I have seen not do major damage.
Glad we could help.
John.
