BE CAREFUL! Does the engine crank? ** IF it doesn't, the air intake may have sucked up water and locked the compression cylinders hydrolically. IF it doesn't crank, pull the plugs out and try to crank the engine so that it pumps out the water. Replace the plugs and try to start again.** **IF it does, it just may need to dry out.**
Possible internal engine damage.
The churning paddle wheels of the Birkenhead drove her on with such force that the rock sliced through into the hull ripping open the compartment between the engine-room and forepeak. Water flooded into the forward compartment of the lower troop deck filling it instantly.
when you are driving it is under your left knee
Yep.That is why you should go slow through a flooded road so it doesn't get in your engine. Hope this helps :)
The firewall is between the engine compartment and the passenger compartment.
On a 1999 Mercury Mountaineer : The Powertrain Control Module ( PCM ) is in the engine compartment , passing through the firewall . From the engine compartment , towards the passenger side of the engine compartment , you will see where the wiring harness is bolted to one end of the PCM at the firewall ( most of the PCM is " hidden " behind the glove compartment )
The engine compartment would be the area under the hood that the engine sits in.
That depends on how deep the water is. If it is only up to the bottom of your bumper your ok, If its any higher than your headlights stay well clear. You will have electical faults and possibly get water in your engine.
Under the hood where the engine is mounted is the engine compartment.
The engine.
The firewall as they call it, is the metal that separates the engine and the driving compartment. Also known as the Bulkhead, or Forward Bulkhead
