water too deep !

[david moore]

hia guys and dolls just wondered if surf has a water deapth sensor as the other day i went threw a ford how hards that when to my shock the water seemed to be rather deep and i got a loud beep same as glow plugs have heated and several lights appeard on the dash bored didnt have time to cheak what lights were actually on as i was panaking rather alot to get threw the ford IF GREEN PEACE GET THERE WAY long live surfs
p.s just another quick question has anybody fitted an automatic transmition cooler and then used the radiator to put vegetable oil/diesel were the automatic transmition ones ran as i thought this seemed to be rather a good way to warm up said bio fuels

Water depth Sensor?

Yes all Surfs have them, its your feet when they get wet stop and retreat.

Unless you have a snorkel keep the water level UNDER the height of the passenger headlight (guess where the air intake is ? )

But as others have said there is an ideal indicator of when you are too deep - the door seals wash your toes !!

I reckon not enough speed to create a bow wave, and the alternator got submerged.
