I drove into a deep puddle and my van died. Now it won't turn over. I have good battery and the starter is working it just can't seem to turn the engine over. Seems like the engine is stuck in one place. Is there a way to break it loose and how?

may have sucked water into the system. remove the plugs and see if it cranks. if it does, get all the water out and put the plugs back in, change oil, filter, trans fluid before starting.
