Hydraulic lock, often referred to as hydrolock, occurs when a liquid, typically water, enters the combustion chamber of an engine and prevents the pistons from moving. This can happen due to various reasons, such as a faulty head gasket, a cracked engine block, or ingesting water through the air intake. As the piston attempts to compress the liquid, which is incompressible, it can cause significant damage to the engine, including bent rods or a cracked engine block. Immediate diagnosis and repair are crucial to prevent further engine damage.
