Just throwing this out there follow at your own risk. I ran my car threw a deep puddle before sucked water up killed it. Got it fired back up ran like shit i just revved the piss out of it and then beat the piss out of it till it cleared everything out. Changed oil plugs ran fine afterwards. Now you’ve had water sitting in your motor for a month now so i dunno shit may be fucked.

Coolant did make its way in the motor, but i blew it all out like the next day and changed the oil and flushed everything. Ive pulled each plug out and there is no coolant on any of the pistons at all, bone dry.

Get it started keep it running see if it clears out. Try to drive it. If its just a sensor thats fucked you wont hurt anything by trying to do this.
