Hi, I have a 98' le sabre that had a intake manifold leak and sucked out the cooling fluid. It sat for a couple of months, I just put new intake manifold gaskets in. It had water in most of the cylinders. I removed and replace the spark plugs

I saw the temp gage rise as I was driving, it got warm, but not "HOT". I pulled over at a store and after it cooled, I added more water. Drove it home. When I learned what the gasket kits and a new battery costs, I waited for my tax return. After I did all this work it, it ran, but felt to me like crappy gas. I hope I answered your question.
