It's a little hard for the rod to push the piston up and down with water in the cylinder. Good luck on that gear, hope you can just let it dry.

well i looked at it....its got a bent rod(s)...i tried to turn the engine by putting a ratchet on the rotating assembly and turning it... i had everyone at big als try a turn, they couldnt get it to budge. so im either going to part it out and get a newer car, or get a swap....

did you try turning the engine at the crank pulley with a long ratchet? sounds to me you have an elctrical problem like a loose cable or something. a starter on a hydrolocked motor will usually make one distinct click each time it is engaged and thats it, it will also spin once the plugs are removed expelling what ever fluid was in there (usually several feet into the air if the plugs are on top like your car). check your battery conections and the ground cable on top of your transmision. good luck
