"Well it may not be damaged. What you need to do is remove the intake and remove the spark plug cover. You need to remove the water out of the cylinders and take a vaccumm and suck out as much water as you can from the throttle body. Then you need to drain the oil and tranny fluid about 10-15 times each to insure all the water gets out of there. Just keep refilling it and draining it. Then try and start your car. I had the same thing happen and this is what the shop did for me. Charged me $300, but doing it yourself should be cheaper. Hope this helps you. '

You might have other damage down the road though. My throttle body needed to be replaced after like 2 weeks after I got the car working"

is all nonsense, what thinking is involved before a diy entry? " oh, this looks ok, even though i dont really know whether or not the information is correct"
