    But on a TD5 you should move the ecu from under the seat and put it on the top of the rear bulkhead or if you are a real boy , on the roof

    Water Depth ( probably not relevant)

    I saw an some pics or royal marines driving off landing craft 2 miles out in the sea.
    I understand the vehicle fitter took 9 hours to get all the salt water out of everything, I don't know if the are using the new engines yet.
    I wasw also told by an older engine builder who had replaced a blowen head gasket water had got into the oil( about twice the capacity). He had no choice but to keep driving, by the time he got to where he could buy some oil to drian and refill the crank case,there was no evedence of any water it had all boiled out.
    I did a head gasket on my 2 1/4 and drove it home, about 3 km.
    When I pulled the head, of the rocker looked like it had been washed with kero.
