Default ok someone please help me...

I'm considering taking my own life. I'm fed up with this bullshit. Anyway..

After that huge fucking rainstorm somehow my intercooler piping filled up with water. I went to start my car today and it sucked up water and died. I don't see a hole in the block anywhere and my plugs arent wet. But now after I turn the key over i don't get srs, oil, batter, or check engine lights and nothing happens when I go to start the car.

I'm hoping my motor isn't trash or I'm going to hang myself in the basement.

How water in your motor caused all that is beyond me. However did u take the water out of the engine? I thing worst case scenario is that your headgasket could be blown. Thats what happened to me when I hydrolocked my motor with gas.

It didn't suck up a lot of water. The throttle body was closed, my plugs aren't wet. I think what happend is it was starved of air from all of the water.

well sorry for being a bitch earlier. I just thought "fuck I hydrolocked my built motor that only has 500 miles on it" and went into panic mode. I'm pretty sure my battery fuse is dead or my battery is.

As to why my battery died? I have no clue.

Sounds like battery.

How would water get in your piping?
