WET CAI NEED HELP!!!!

Infamous665 · 04-07-2005, 02:21 PM

I was driving last night to my boys house and took a different route. I turned on a block and about 400 ft. down, the road ended and there was a huge field of big puddles of mud and water. By the time I noticed it was too late and my CAI was soaked and the car shut off. There were no signs to warn u that there was no fuckin road ahead and also no street lights. I managed to get home going 10mph and not stopping at stop signs or the car would shut off. Can someone tell me what exactly is wrong with the car and what would have to be done to fix it. Thanks

your intake sucked up water and caused your engine to seize up ....im pretty sure your screwed, but i could be wrong i dont know if its fixable or not...damn man that sucks ass seriously...good luck

Its called Hydrolock, water CANNOT get into ur engine, if water gets in ur engine ur screwed and need to spend alot of money to fix it. sorry to hear that, hope thats not the case.

i'm willing to bet that the MAS got fried before you got hydro lock.
find a frioend with a mitsu and swap your mas and see if that fixes the problem.
you get a check engine light?

if you hydrolocked your engine, it wouldn't run

There is a Jamaican saying, that says "long cut draw sweat; shortcut draw blood" . If you had'nt taken that route, you would'nt be in this predicament.

Sorry to hear. I hope your engine is ok.
