You better hope you didn't hydro-lock the motor.

I was told I'd have to submerge the filter in water before it being hydrolocked.

I drove a good while before it couldn't start anymore.

CAI on a daily is duuuuuuuumb

[Stupid Kid]

nah you just gotta get enough water in the motor...
Hope that didn't happen though, would suck to kill your car by washing it...

I mean if you were driving it and it was running ok i guess then it isn't hydrolocked, its pretty apparent when you bend a rod

Fixed.

I used rolled up paper towels to soak up most of the water in 2 cylinders. There was probably a thin layer in one cylinder and then less in the other.

Yeah it was running fine and also did a bent rod test which the rods are fine.

to get rid of water what you do is remove all spark plug and crank the fuck out of the car.

Water will shoot out and you are done

Yeah I did that when it was still in the parking lot and I only got a mist out.

Fuck it, I'm going to try and get those bolts out of my Hamanns with a pair of vice grips and then just use metric hex screws.

Thoughts?

[coconutt]

What kind of bolts are stuck? You can't use an impact or something?

I'd need either a 6 or 7mm 10 point bit. Both I've been unable to locate.

Sounds like a run to WalMart.

sure its not an 8mm?

[Jlyons617]

I thought so too. So I bought an 8mm bit and tried. No dice. I'm kinda think it's the elusive 7mm that OZ used on the Vega's. I'm also going to measure the bit tomorrow after I find my caliper.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking.
