    only a small % of army rigs have a snorkel fitted, they regularly drive through water deeper than 500mm and regularly hydrostat lock the engines, bloody grunts!!! and dropshorts!!! as the air intake sits behind the headlight assembly

    one good part about the 4bdi is that its hard to bend the em, often we were able to rip the head off, clean her out and wack her back together and off she would go
