JIM WILLY GOT STUCK......! PICs
Miniman:
Well I see ya point. You looked like ya was floating at one point. Have you moved your EMS ( Engine Managment System ) from under the seat if not get it done you dont want to be missing the plane next time eh mate....
drum:
No I've not moved it, and I haven't moved the throttle potentiometer either :D
The question is, where would I move them to, When ever I've checked under the seat boxes, the tide mark on the ECU one is only an inch or so, and the ECU is mounted right at the top. Even after a prolonged wading session. In anything with a bulkhead\mesh divide it's easy stick at the top of that, but the only sensible place I could put it, would be the above the roof lining, which means near enough stripping it out :( So the other option is to waterproof the seat box, which is fine, but I'm not sure how the water is getting in. I've silconed the obvious holes, but it still gets in, and if your not careful all you do is trap the water in.

The other option is to buy an Extension cable to move the EMS/ECU. I have seen them somwhere on the net not cheep tho I think they was about £100 but may be worth the money if it stops you from having to spend silly money getting ya new one and engine drained out after it stops. The way you wade if the engine stalls the water would rush up the exhaust and flood the engine.

If you had the cable you would be able to move it to wherever you wanted.

You'd need a extension cable to move it anywhere sensible, it's just that there isn't anywhere sensible without one hell of a lot work stripping the vehicle.
Miniman:
Just an Idea mate you dont want the bill for a new ecu and engine. I dont have that problem. I can take the battery off mine and bump start it. Runs without. There is something to say for the old landys still.
