OO nga exage lang ako 3/4 ng radiator ko ang inabot.Naabot kasi ang cap dahil sa agos ng dumaan ang bus.Try to go to Southwoods-Rosario ang people there will know.Tinamad lang ako umikot kaya nilusong ko na. I dont have your big bad machines, but i do have the guts.Still have those grass/plastics attached to the radiator, tinatamad pa ako maglinis.just my experience.

[newbie13]

I know it is pure and simple stupid.Kaya nga im gunning for 4X4 HEHE...but it will take a years pa.It says sa sig ko kaya still learning pa.Tama ba ginawa ko, patay aircon adjust ko rev to 3000 para di mamatay, tapos prayer then lusong. After 6 sec, ayun naka alis na,usok radiator, no brake at nanginginig pa.

[newbie13]

Running at 5-10 kph kaya di naman nabasa engine."Bow wave" nga siguro yun.Next time iikot nako hehe..Still cleaning those pesky debris...at paadjust ko pa ng konti ang torsion bar? para tumaas.

bow wave yun. like my experience. malakas tumulak exhaust gas ng diesel. don't think you have to rev it that high. I don't believe in having to rev high cuz your tailpipe is underwater. I've tried covering my pajeros exhaust pipe with a slipper. no matter how hard i tried, di ko mapigilan lumabas hangin.

i don't think you have to turn off your aircon either. maybe only because the water would stop your aux fan from spinning and overload it.

prayer na lang. sana wala kang masagasaang bata na sumisisid. hehe. If i were you, di ako iikot. ang layo eh. lusong ako and enjoy every minute of it. onga pala, kung manual ka, first gear ka then keep your foot off the clutch. pansin ko sa mga di 4x4 dumudulas clutch pag nalulubog sa tubig. happend to my MB100 and my corona '82. Also my friends tamaraw fx na kinabitan namin ng homemade snorkel.

ano mentainance ng diesel pickups pag prati sa baha? dami kc mga rivers d2 sa amin everytime akyat kmi ng bundok daan kmi ng 3 of more rivers halos hanggang fender na yung tubig. di kaya masira ang turbo nun kung parati nababasa? ride pla nmn is fuego 2.8di turbo, nka lift na ng 3inches tapos nka 31x10.5 M/T.

one time dumaan kmi ng rice field tapos biglang lumakas ang ulan... almost hanggang hips na yung tubig tapos di na mkita yung daan... buti nlng may nauna na 10wheeler sa amin tapos ginawa nmn guide sinundan nlng nmn hanggan sa nka dating kmi sa highway. kung wlay yun hulog kmi sa rice field. ang nkakatakot lang dun kc 10pm na ng gabi.

when crossing flood, why is it a no no to step on the clutch? Ganun kasi ako lagi halfway step sa clutch.
Kapag di nakatapak sa clutch paano mag high rev without the car running fast kahit naka 1st gear?

CZintrclr::: Unang una papasok ang tubig sa clutch system. Mababasa ang parts na hindi dapat, masamang mabasa ang hot metal. They cause what machinist call "hot spots", hardened metal part that is difficult to machine. Pangalawa, you have to drain transmission oil that blends with water.

When crossing flooded water above exhaust with a diesel engine, di na kailangan mag hi-rev. Trust us, we've been there. Kala rin namin nung una mamamatay makina pero hinde pala. :D

River/Flood Water Crossing Tips

Just psych yourself out that the engine will not die even if the exhaust goes under.

Yes, it will get quieter but it does not mean that it is dying. Just drive steady. FOOT OF THE CLUTCH as we were taught in 4x4 driving school.
