I'm not goin around sayin im better than all you or that i know everything, so no, im not bein condescending, i was just helping, the guy asked for it and i gave an answer just like the rest of you, i just dont sugarcoat **** and im blunt, excuse my attitude, do you still need a shoulder to cry on??


As for you Bongo1210, hope your car is still running great, would hate for another Z to be down off the road.

If you are going to talk about people's intelligence, I suggest you use proper English

"Proper" SPELLING (not english) or not, if you cant take some criticism for being wrong, then just shut up. When you have people giving bad info to fix a problem, you should expect it. If you fail to understand that then you shouldnt be posting in a forum, let alone posting answers that have nothing to do with the issue.

Same with me 2 weeks after having the car, i'm driving through the Grapevine in a huge storm (came out of no where?) and my friends said that the water was half way up my door. I got lots of dings/scratches that drive but luckily the car seems to be driving fine.

And he said he drove it home and parked it fine so obvously its not and theres no real worry or concern. Yes i would still check the intake boxes n such just cuz. The only good easy way to "fix" a hydrolocked engine without takin it apart is to pull a plug out and suck the water out with a tube or hose or stick a rag down thru the hole and absorb it, ive had the unfortunate pleasure of doin this many times on many friends cars. Dont worry dude, if u drove it afterwards, ur fine, if anything happened it would have happened before u got thru the water.
+1, most of here actually do not know what is going on, they have just read about it, so they try to answer questions.
