Default Local mechanic or knowledgable person?

I'm not sure where to post this so I'll just put it here and if it needs move, please move it. I think my cars hydrolocked. I tried to fix it but i give up. I need someone to come over and take off my head and look at the internals to see if anything is messed up, or a close shop for me to tow it to. I'm located in Kempsville of va beach. Let me know.

why dont yoo pull out the sprak plugs and see if it will spin over, if there is water in there, with the plugs out you can crank it over, by hand first I would suggest, then if it moves, spay some type of lub in the spark plug holes and crank it over with the starter. I had a 1979 Buick do this after a small engine fire. It hydrolocked from the fire hose, I pulled th eplugs, dumped trans fluid in the carb, (dont do that if you have a computer controllled car) replaced all the burned wires and spark plugs and drove the car for 3 more years

Tried that. Let it sit over night after draining all oil and pouring a cylidner treatment in. Still no luck and i'd rather be safe than sorry. If the rods are bent i would like to know before i get it start and throw something threw the block.

yep, they prolly are if it still doesnt move with no plugs in it. Mine sat for a week fukk of water but I knew it was there and never tried to start itbefore taking out the plugs, plus it wasnt running when the water got in there.
Good luck
