i have a question?

[92accordlx]

well it started raining today, and i noticed that part of my inner fender scraped off due to the fact that the filter on my cold air intake wasnt a perfect fit, i had clearance issues with it, but it fits on the pipe, well anyway part of the inner fender where the filter is is gone, now i cant get no new inner fender due to rain at a junkyard and its closed today or dealer which is way too much and i have work later, my engine wont hydrolock will it as the water splashes on the filter? or it can only do that if the filter is in water???

the inner fender doesn't completley protect you from hydroloc anyways.

I personally wouldn't even drive a car with a cai in the rain. I've seen to many friends hydroloc motors that way.

JMO.

Some people do it all the time, and others get screwed.

You personally can attest to someone totally hydrolocking their motor cuz of a CAI?

There are two or three people on this board that hydrolocked their motors.

just dont drive you car into puddles and you should be straight or just if you know your area well youll know which ones fill up with alot of water and take another route.

no i honestly can't testify to seing one in person.





BUT I CAN testify to seing Two of them in person. Not on here, not through a friend of a friend, but two separate people i personally know have had hydrolocked motors.

One stock civic.
One ls vtec hatch.

One of them had a rod that was practically bent in the shape of an L. Looked like the incredible hulk got a hold of it!
