No one hopefully would be dumb enough to drive through deep water to hydrolock the car.

Probably less than 5 fingers of people on here have done it.

<|-------- Integra Hydrolocked on a Rainy July 4th Night (4am) on the Major Deegan Expressway... Didn't realize I was in such a deep puddle 'til I opened the door to investigate why the car turned off on me... ... wouldn't have been so bad if I knew what happened... would have stopped me from trying to start the car sooooo many times....

RSA - Thanks for sharing but I have to ask...Are you an writer? I went to that thread to read up on what finally happened. Waded through 7 pages for people banging on the poor guy only to realize that I wasn't going to get a chance to read the final chapter of the book when the moderator closed the thread before Jon could come back on and tell the faithfull reader what the final result was? Any chance you have a link to the "rest of the story"? How much did it finally cost the guy? Did his insurance cover the cost of the engine? Did he buy the eBay motor or did he do something else? Inquiring minds want to know... LOL (Thanks anyway)

Shoot! JUST missed the 5 minute edit deadline. I haven't even read this thread yet because I was trying to get back here for the edit but in the event others are reading later here is the final chapter (I hope)

Writer's leave you hanging in hopes of selling you the next book in the series (i.e. sequel). Just a little joke because the thread you sent us too left us hanging but he came back on and started a new thread (just today I think) that tells the rest of the details contained in the sequel like (1) He filed it with his incurance company, (2) He got a compelte block replacement, (3) Yes, it is running once again.
