Guys, one thing you do that bugs me. Turn these engines over by hand before you try and crank them. If they do have a cylinder full of water and the engine is cranked you could bend rods. If it's free to turn through two complete turns ( 4 cycle engine ) and there's no water in the intake then it's clear to try and spin with the starter. And as others have commented, check the trans and diff as well as brake and PS fluids. Then put a few miles on them and check for foam again. Just an FYI, years ago flood cars often had the fluids changed at the yard. But, if they did not start them and drive them, then water in all the odd places might not have been flushed out. A few miles will circulate fluids and then the next fluid change will get most of the remaining water out.

Guys, when pumping out the cylinders on a petrol, you should really pull the fuel pump fuse first - all it takes on one spark on that fuel injected mist coming out of the spark plug holes. Also, as other have said, if I am looking at a "flooded" car, the first thing to do before trying to start is pull the plugs, open the air filter to check for water and spin it over. If water is in the cylinders, even turning over on the starter can do damage internally. But overall you guys hit the jackpot on these.

Come on guys...cringing the whole time here, not properly checking over car/air intakes etc. Auction didn't start some of them because they didn't want to risk possibly hydrolocking the engines. Clearing codes doesn't fix them, so many systems need to see movement/drive cycles/etc. You keep commenting on how clean the interior is/must not have gotten water in, but also say you know Copart cleans them! The back door is propped open and taped for a reason to allow interior to vent and dry out. And yes you can definitely do damage just with the starter on a hydrolocked engine, that Ford may run but definitely doesn't sound right. Before anyone comments....yes I know they're their cars and they can do whatever they want with them. I'm just concerned that they're on here making it look like every flood car is perfectly fine. I sold used cars for a long time and a few of my run around beaters (not to be sold) were previously flooded. Every single one had issues down the road after driving a while
