Other cars were getting through about 6" water, I figured I could. But lowered car with 4 guys and a CAI (forgot about that) = stalled car. : The starter would turn but it just goes PMPH = hydrolocked I suppose. Gotta wait a day or two I guess? Stick a hair dryer up the throttle body? Would it help to hold the throttle open with a brick or something? Damn hurricanes! Replys: Plus I was in 2nd gear at 1200rpm maybe, the engine stalled, it didnt lock up (kept turning as I coasted down in gear but no power) n/m RosenKen (93 SE 5spd) 15:45:34 9/16/2004 (0)
