What year is it?

Pre 97 have a habit of rods jump out from under the rockers - if it is take off cover and get it back in place.

About my experience of it - hopefully others may be along with other suggestions

Its a P reg, 97. Taking off the rocker cover sounds abit technical for me, is it easy?

Damp :-k

When mine has been through 3 foot of water it still runs OK

That's the reason I got a diesel :D

Reckon you should invest in a stick to check the depth as well. ;)
