Hydrolock
I drove through a puddle today and 10min later when I goosed it hard it sputtered a little bit......normal giving it gas was fine....I haven't tried it yet.....what are you guys' thoughts on this? I am hoping it isn't hydro locked.
|
lucky...
how long did you keep it on, after you got it to start again? |
It never stopped.........I just never gunned it again......I think it was the MAF sensor acting up....I am going to wait till tonight before I start it up again.
|
alright...well have someone if you can monitor your exhaust fumes for white smoke! If there is white smoke then an oil change and a checking of the spark plugs may be in order! Also in the meanwhile remove the air filters and check if still soaked, then MAF.
Good Luck! |
The crazy thing is that it was a regular puddle, I hear you have to really submerge the filter.
|
then you should be fine...(SHOULD)
|
Hydrolock = cylinders filled with water. Usually ends with bent connecting rods and a huge repair bill.
You may be having ignition trouble. Weak spark. |

I would check to see if your air filter is even wet to begin with!! |
I hydrolocked once. Resulted in a rod out the side of the block. This is why I installed K&N Typhoons. Gotta be a deep a$$ puddle now! Sounds like you lucked out though.

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the info.
