pulled the ecu and let it dry today. Started like a champ and the CEL went away. Drove her home extra slow, water was still coming out of the exhaust along with quite a bit of steam but she made it.

When the neon drove out is when I decided to try and drive the teg out and failed miserably

Yup York College, we pay thousands of dollars a semester to drive through a damn creek, deal with half as many parking spots as there are cars, and apparently if we do get there early enough for a spot it goes underwater. Yay for higher education!!

but it's ok, I made the News...twice

Twice eh? That's something to be proud of.

Regardless if it's all dried out it wouldn't hurt to clean your carpets really well. Pull the ECU and let it dry. Drain the oil out and put new oil in. An oil change never hurts. You could put some fuel treatment in to be safe.

As for starting it / running it in water.. it really shouldn't hurt anything unless the intake is under water. I've put my truck through deeper water than that lol. I've had my entire exhaust under water and full. You start it up and it sprays water lol.

I cleaned all the carpets the same day to try and get the dirty water smell out as much as possible, and I have an appt. for inspection tuesday so the oil will get changed then. And I know what you mean about your truck, I've had the front end of my jeep almost completely under water didn't miss a beat. Gotta love a 4.0 haha
