out of curiousity here. and not trying to be a dick or an ass. but when you saw the water were you like "hell yeah!" or were you like " it doesnt look that deep ill just drive thru it"?

[fieropope]

oh man that sucks, i hate to have my car break, but on the news. how deep did you go to ? my guess is the alt. is screwed ,this is the reason i bought a truck to drive in crap weather .

thought I would be able to drive in the middle of the road and make it but then I noticed it was to deep, so I tried pulling to the side road, and failed.

damn that sucks. my brother has a 96 prelude and had one of those intakes that went down into the fender. he hit a big puddle one time and hydrolocked his shit. had it towed to a shop and they said the oil looked like chocolate milk. they had to change the oil 6 times before it was good again.

[Justin23454]

that sucks, I checked my oil to make sure it wasnt bad, and it looked fine.

[Justin23454]

When I try to start it, it makes like a screeching sound.

[SteveCZ28]

maybe got water up in the starter???

[Justin23454]

thats what we r thinking.

[Justin23454]

My cuz's engine seized due to going though high amout of water like to weeks ago, :/ but I dont believe thats what happened to mine. Then engine bay itself has no water on it or anything, so I should be good with that.

[SteveCZ28]

check your air filter to see if its wet. then look in the bellows going into the maf and tb to see if its wet also. theat will let you know if u sucked water into the top end

[Justin23454]

im gonna go check now.

[Justin23454]

yup water on the filter and tb yaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[Justin23454]

[GTP231]

Pull the plugs out and crank it over and say a lil prayer.
