Oops! Surf sank on Salisbury

[NeilT]

The headlights are well underwater, any sort of throttle will swallow plenty of water.

Yep, see what you mean now, i thought i knew where the air intake was, now i find it much lower..... And the air filter is sodden. Still the pipe after that was dry soon after i went in so it might have just got to the filter and starved it of air... :praying:

Better go to def-con 2 tony. I'm halfway to getting the injectors out to give it a crank, even that is a major undertaking for an amateur though, Why can't it be more like a boat engine, it's always just a case of unscrewing the injector, don't have to dismantle anything, it would have floated also i guess..... Fair warning, if your phone rings you might regret answering it.... I'll keep going for now though.

Got the injectors out, cranked over OK and no water spurted from the holes, lots of pressure from each cylinder so I'm guessing no holes in pistons, injectors back in, fuel lines bled, fired it up and IT LIVES!!! Started OK and ticks over OK though not smoothly, dab of throttle didn't give a smooth rise in revs but there is life so there is hope! Think I'll get over to the technical section and pick some brains....

Gav being Gav decided that he'd better make sure that the puddle was still do-able for Surfs So we had a go this afternoon, after gate crashing a Land Cruiser meeting ...

31/10.5/15 Mud terrain tyres. Gavs got cheapo remoulds bought ready fitted on the white eight spoke wheels, go to formula 4x4 for rough prices.

Oh and you need a little stupidity to add to that
