    ummm how much water are we talking about? Did you drive your car afetr you started it. Change your oil, NOW. If you ran the car you just mixed the water with the oil and its not good to run that mix through your car. Though you may not have short term damage there is possibly long term damage.

    ya change oil asap.... new filter too..
    best thing to do is to take your spark plugs out and turn the engine over..

    i think you do this one at a time.. im not sure.. could someone else confirm?

    or take out all our plugs once

    If your engine starts don't worry about the spark plugs. The only situation where you would have to pull the plugs is if your engine got submerged and your cylinders fill with water.



    Let your can run for a while then turn it off and check your oil if it has any milky brownish color then change your oil but if it looks clean your fine.
