Waterproofing 3.5EFI

L90OOK:
Hi

Any tips on waterproofing a 3.5EFI for wading?  Have snorkel! :D
I heard something about putting a breather on dizzy :?:
Do these engines need wading plugs?  :roll:
Cheers

Hi mate
The engine V8, does not use wading plugs but... the g/box and diff do and if you are lucky they are still in place, Square head bolt in a 'spare'threaded hole  :shock:
The diffs transfer box and gearbox use breathers which can be extended to run up the snorkle
There are many ideas about how the dizzy is w/proofed, you can buy a kit to include the coil too, just make sure you got a good set of leads and cap before you start  :lol:
Hope of help  :wink:

DingoCroft do them as do Tuff Toys (Melton Mowbray).

I've used them successfully on two V8's but as al;ready posted, you need a good set of leads and another tip is to use Motorbike chain wax on the block end to waterproof connection to spark plug.[/url]

I had the tough toys kit, it was c***.  Within a year I was scraping the remians of it off as a sticky goo.  I just use white grease all over everything now.
