how long ago did it get flooded with water?
first I would check the oil and see what it looks like
check coolant level
if it is milky then do a compression test if not milky then
check fuel pump and filter....
 
ive done an oil change sense no water in the oil umm it got flooded around june 5 ill go check the coolant level but where the heck is the fuel filter and the distrubtor is all dry
 
well i went and checked the coolant it was about a quart low and then checked my oil and i got metal shavings in it :redbrick: ****
 
metal shavings in the oil that's a first...I've never seen that before...try do a compression test and see if they'd your problem
 
so i cant rent a tester but the girl friends dad has one but i cant figure out the damn fuel filter iam used to seeing the big cans off an older chevy and i dont see any thing like that wht should the compression be on the block
