THe other night on my way home from work I plowed through a puddle not knwoing i was there bescause it was pouring outsdie. I'm afraid maybe the water got into my motor because I don't have a bypas valve for my intake. Now my motor sputters and my exahust sounds like a friggin' harely when I accelerate but when I downshift it sounds normal. I thought maybe it was do the nitrous but there's no knocking of any kind and the car is still running fine despite the sputtering. Any suggestions on what to do ? Thanks.

 

How would I know if a rod was broken ? I mean theres no kncking of any kind.

 

there would be a rod sticking out of your block, and your car would not move unless pushed

 

Okay...well, I'm gonna try the STP treatment and see how that goes and I"ll let you guys know. I'm kinda hoping the motor might me blown cause I want that B18C5. hahahaha...

 

how long did you run it afterwords? ive gotten a little water into my intake before in my civic, drove it hard for about 5 minutes, and it worked like normal.

 

That thing is a gimmick.

I doubt its very useful. Good in theory, poor in application.

 

change your oil to just incase u sucked up water in your intake

 

do you know how it even works? i know plenty of people that have saved there motor because they have one....... i really wish i had one when i went through water.

 

Well I drove it home for about 10 minutes but i was afraid to run it hard. But I can give that a try I guess. See, this is what I'm thinking.
