Yeah i have a 95 mitsubishi eclipse Gs and a couple nights ago it rain like a bitch and the streets were flood like water up to my knees and on my way home i had to go through the flood and when i going through the flood the car turn off! So i tryed to trun it on but it didn't so i had to push it. then the next morning i went to see if it turn on but it didn't. and someone told me to take out the spark plugs to check if water got in the motor and as soon as a take out the plug alittle water came out? so is there any thing i could do to take out the water or if anyone of you people recommend me something let me know!!

 

could be water in the engine, but if thats the case, the engine is in bad shape. water damages engine internals fast, not to mention rust. it may be your computer got wet, and short circuted, and if thats the case, a new computer may need to be bought. if the electronics are fine...(check with a multi-meter), and it is the water in the engine, the only way to really get rid of that is to use something that can suck it out, or ive heard of people using a air compressor to blow it out...but whatever you do, do it soon or your enigne will be trash...my buddy cracked his block running through water, so if the engine was real hot, a crack might be somewhere...(look for oil or anti-freeze leaks, or visable cracks) but lets hope thats not the case, although a blocks are easy to come by for a decent price...sometimes...let me know what you find...

 

same thing happened to me once. I took out the plugs and cranked it over to get the water out and put the plugs in and fired it right up. Lucky I guess. But you really need to try something like that and see what it does. good luck!

 

Well I found out want happened with my ride well some how the car was leaking oil so we put the car on jacks and found that the oil pan was torn form the side!!![:'(] after that discovery we took off the oil pan to replace it when we did we found the connecting rod from the 1st piston broke in half so i guess thats the end of this car. unless i decied to fix it. well do you people have any ideas for me that could help me cause i really don't want to lose this ride i put alot of time and some what money to this car! please help!

 

The only suggestion i have is fix it if you have the money. You really dont have much options

 

About how much would it be to fix it? or do i have to get a new engine?
