Hi everyone, got a major problem and hope someone can help. To cut a long story short was up at Glentarkie off road course the other day and decided... as you do... to venture into deep water. Was stuck for about 10min before being pulled out. The engine ran all the time and only conked out when on dry land but started again first time and I drove home about 15mile no problem. I have started the engine 2 or 3 times after this and it ran no problem. Went out today and although it turns over it conks out right away with loads of white smoke from the exhaust. I have tried repeatedly to start but with the same results...any advice!

I'd pull the glowplugs and crank it over to make sure all the water has gone and it turns over with no problems, then run it of a tank of new diesel in case the tank breather is open and its got water into the fuel.4x4toys.co.uk - Keeping you on and off the road...

and dried it out with high pressure compressed air, plugged it all back in and HEY PRESTO, she started on the first turn of the key. Gonna move it higher up when I have the time. Thanks for your advice.
