    Got me buggered why people don't diesel these things and fit coils once the ECU's are fried. Must be heaps of water damaged wrecked P38's out there as insurance companies usually write them off.

    It isn't an easy conversion. The car is too integrated in its electronics.

    Yep thats Ralph, and yep he likes his shorts.

    To dispel some of the musings on that forum:

    He didn't open the door - after 10-15 minutes in the water it slowly seeped in enough to get to the ECU.

    I don't think the damage bill was expensive - the ECU was dried out and checked on site, and reinstalled with no ill effects. 2 days later it was at the club meeting, still covered in muck.

    Ralph IS smiling - he's always smiling!


    PS - apparently after recovering the P38a, a Patrol thought he would try and show the Landies how it was done. After taking a good gulp of water and the owner repeatedly trying to restart it (against all advice) the motor is no more...

    Those damn electronics, always letting cars down. Good thing the patrols don't have any.
