Underwater Disco
seabo:
Had a choice on Sunday - finish fitting the snorkel v. catching the last couple of hours at Cowm pay & play - obviously went to play.
Amateur mistake - drove into puddle (with wife and 3 kids!) - engine stops - water comes in - finds its level 2" above seats - lots of wet bums.
Some one on site took out injectors and blew water out of three of the cylinders - still won't start - AA got me home (after 3 hours in a pub and near divorce)
Help - how can I get it going again (the disco not my marriage!)?
(Dehumidifier working overtime!)

300 tdi?
Does it now turn over freely?
Check for water in the ecu. Saw one in ford at bakewell and he had drowned it.
Remove ecu and take it in house to dry out. Was told he put his in oven but I think near fire or rad is more sensible.
Worth a look :wink:

thumbs:
is everything just wet eletrically and inside or has it hydrolicked (cant spell that)

seabo:
I'm hoping its just wet - someone said it might have hydrolicked (can't spelt it and don't know what it means!)
Going out to give her some TLC now
