in other words he has water in the cylinders pull the spark plugs out and see if it will turn over if it is free then and watter is in the cylinders then you could have a blown head gasket. and i hope youdidn't bend a rod or crack a piston.

RE: Hydrolock Help on a 98 cobra

I hydrolocked a 93 jeep wrangler.

Here is what you do... take out the plugs, turn the engine over... change the oil, maybe even use engine flush.

hope for the best. Mine ran for several more months before a rod went through the block.
