My newly turbo'd 14 had flowing water up to the gas tank!!

On the 7th of this month there was some bad flooding in the earea and dint realize it till fire department was nocking on the door that it was that bad my newly turbo'ed zx14 was damn near under watering in the driveway and the fire department would not let me go move it because of the rising rapids, sooo I'm left with a debree covered engine mud and crap all over the bike, still waiting on insurance to look at it!

If you have not done so.remove the battery and and after the ins looks at it. tear her down. I bet you can get to run again. What a shame.....hope the electrics did not short out while the battery was still charged. Did you look in the gas tank and air box?? Plull the plugs and by hand turn the engine over and spray some WD-40 or what ever in the cylinders. Drain the oil now and see what come out.

Don't panic. Drain, WD-40 the cylinders, new oil. Run it and heat it up...drain oil and repeat a few times. You will be OK....change plugs when you are done.
