my friend was driving down buckner and was forced in to a deep puddle of water by another driver it was raining hard and darkin that area so he didnt see it anyway the car just shut off immediately and wont turn on at all just barely a click but the battery is brand new and still has full power? so what other things should he look at? he is praying no water got up into the CAI so his fingers are crossed

Water got into the engine. Pull the plugs and turn it over, check the oil.
Be lucky it didn't break a rod, and or the block. Being that it's not turning over, there is still water in the chamber and everything is still together.
Could have a bent rod and or valves too.

i drove through some deep water back in the day and had to pull the plugs...two of them were wet and water did shoot out after turning the motor over.
another possibility is that the mass air meter got wet and isnt working right. dry it off good and check all the plugs. it would crank up but wouldnt stay running long.2011 Mustang GT
