Default Swamped the backup

Huge deluge here a couple days ago. Lil' Z was tucked away safe and sound as I took my other car (1996 T/A). Got to a flooded viaduct and thought (stupidly) I could make it thru the rising water. The Eibach's have lowered her more than an inch, not helping matters and I made it about 70% across when she stalled. Finally got it restarted but it seems to be running really rough and the service engine soon light is on. Anyone know what potential issues I might have from the event?

At worst, bent valves and bent rods. If your lucky just bent valves. that would explain rough ride but still running. Good luck.

Remove that cap and rotor and dry it out. Replace plugs and wires if necesary. check air filter repalce if wet.
