seems to me that u just pulled the head off and just looked at the top of the pistons.....most of the time when water is sucked in the motor rods bend and those u cant see by just taking the head off a motor....

or head just the head. Rods are not bent from what I can tell, no I didn't take the motor apart but the pistons are going all the way up, evenly, etc.

Re: Sucked up water, help!

If the pistons are moving up and down freely, most likely they are ok, you can pull the oil pan and baffle and get a better look at the rods.

Good luck!
