Yesterday I drove my 2004 toyota coralla into a big puddle on the street. The car sunk up to the back tire in the back, and only about 3-4 inches in the front. We pushed the car out about 5 minutes later, got all the water out of the interior with buckets, and were not able to drive it the rest of the day because the car would not start. Today, it did not work either, and we had a tow come tow it to the repair shop. The radio works fine, so I dont know if the problem is electrical or what, but why wont the car start? What is wrong with it?

Yea, it attempts to start but shuts down immediately. Actually the first time we tired to start it, it worked completly, but shut off about a minute later.
