Message	a major Florida thunderstorm and while I was pulling into a parking lot to wait it out my Z took a wave of water over the front end. The car stalled out (was idling at the time) and I parked it immediately. The car did turn over a few times but wouldn't start. I checked the oil and found a VERY VERY little bit of water on the oil cap but no where else in the crankcase or on the dipstick! I tried to start it once more and it sounded like the stater froze up so I had it towed to a local shop! How F'ed am I guys?
