remove the plugs and crank the water out. change the oil and filter before starting it. cross your fingers and hope you did not bend any connecting rods.

How do I crank the water out if it won't start?

once theplugs are out, crank the motor to spray out the water. add a little oil into the cylinders for compression re install the plugs, hook everything back up, change the oil and filter and try and start it.
