    Seriously, the collective IQ of all the drivers together must add up to less than a gnat.
    You worry that their usual driving skills match their crazy decision to attempt a 3ft ford at all, yet alone at reckless speed, and you might meet them on the road.

    The engines are not just flooded folks they are hydraulically locked and permanently damaged.

      @@CaptHollister Yes, the Injectors are, but as I'm sure you are fully aware the Diesel Engine is a compression ignition engine, there is no electrical control over ignition spark as you alluded to in your original comment. If a diesel were to flood and fail it's electrical system, then the engine would just immediately cease to run, rather than run on in a choppy manner with all kinds of shite coming out of the exhaust like that Discovery in the Video for example...... that was definitely ingested water causing head gasket/piston issues and bent Con Rods etc....

    @captainfrank01 2 ปีที่แล้ว +30

    Most 4wd's in Australia (and probably world wide) raise fuel/diff/gearbox/transfer case breathers to at least bonnet level and fit a sealed snorkel to protect the air intake BEFORE attempting any water crossing of significant depth. Lemmings just drive their unprepared vehicles straight in as you can see in these videos ....... and immediately suffer the highly expensive consequences.

    • @captainfrank01
      @captainfrank01 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @Fraser True, they help keep dust out of the air filter (and also therefore out of the engine) on those sorts of roads, but they are considered essential for water crossings deeper than the vehicles stated wading depth (usually around 600mm) to avoid the engine potentially ingesting water and getting hydro-locked. What many people overlook (apart for the need for a snorkel in the first place) is that fuel tank, differentials, gearbox and transfer case all have breathers that are rarely placed high enough and all of these components can suck in water as well, especially if the car is driven into cold water at normal operating temperatures.

    Maybe I'm missing something here. I live in the Caribbean and there is no way anyone here would see such a heavily flooded roadway ahead and just plough into the water. I'm thinking, wouldn't it make sense to go at it slowly so that the engine isn't drowned by a rush of water? Why are these stupid drivers attempting to speed through a flood which in some cases are much higher than the air intake of their vehicles?
    Look at the trucks that stalled, if they had gone slowly they would have been fine so what is this thing with English-people and nonsensically ploughing through floods?

    I guess many of these drivers do not have basic reading skills (or poor eyesight. which beggars why they are allowed to drive) ... The level indicator shows just under 3 feet. Once fetid water floods the passenger compartment (as well as the engine), for insurance purposes most 2 year and older vehicles are classed as write-offs. Interior components are not designed to deal with water ingress....even if its not, try selling a car where the cabin has been compromised by floodwater... you can never get rid of the smell.....its worse than a smoker.. Copart has hundreds of ex flooded vehicles for sale that look ok from the outside but were classed as write-offs.

    Once upon a time cars were pretty simple. The air intake and carb. was high up on at the top of the engine, they were not packed with vulnerable computer chips and expensive electronics, they usually cut due to a wet distributer and drying the cap and leads plus a squirt of WD done the trick.

      Im more irritated by the incorrect spacing on the plate. Car shops should not be allowed to print plates if not legally correct. A bill is slowly going through parliament, I hope, so that eventually it may be points on the license for plates like that and not just a fine. I tell you, its nobody else's fault if drivers cannot stick to the rules.

    Can’t stop watching these videos, I even came down last Saturday to watch some tools drive through and you guys thought I was there to sink my car 😂😂 nerr I’m good thanks I understand how water doesn’t make the engine go brum brum ..
    I’d love to know how these people explain to the boss how they destroyed the expensive truck or their car by driving through a little bit of water..
    I hope the insurance company tell them to go away they aren’t getting paid and the boss tells them to clock out for the last time and sends them the big bill for the new engine.
    All I have left to say is for all those who have driven through this Ford and for any future idiots that drive through the Ford and entertain us is this >> you silly ba***rds

    The thing about driving into puddles, is to keep the engine turning over fast, not driving fast. Many of these drivers adopted the same technique as they would for snow, which is a mistake. Low gear, high revs, and go slow.

    The first one is very important, if your car goes into deep water it will go upside down. If you need to escape, do it fast before the car is submerged underwater as the water pressure won't allow you to open your door. You can use your head rest to take out a window by popping it off, it's best to buy a special seatbelt the window punching tool...take care 😊
