The intercooler fins acts as cooler when air go thru those fins. Parang radiator lang yan. If it is sealed correctly hindi makakapasok ang tubig sa linya nun, then safe sa water fording at walang masisira.
On the downside, remember the laws of physics. Any hot metal or steel submerged under water will produce as what machine shops call "hot spots". These spots are harder and will not function properly on certain occasions. Unless machined and removed.
wat do you mean by hot spots?.. panu cya magmamalfunction, pagnabasa lang while its hot?..Originally Posted by Ungas
dont get it kasi.. :roll:
eh kapag naghuhugas ng sasakyan?
tapos napasakuan ng tubig..okay lang ba un?!!
ung tatay ko kasi tinatakpan niya ung kapag naghuhugas..
I was pointing out the internal parts. I assume wala namang tagas yan so it is safe on water fording.Originally Posted by odell
Alin ba ang tinatakpan? Yung turbo mismo o yung intercooler coils/fins?Originally Posted by kiper18
ic.. hehehe.. edi pacheck na lang lge.. hehehe..I was pointing out the internal parts of your engine. I assume wala namang tagas yan so it is safe on water fording.
OT
kelan nyu pnapaover ol check up... i mean un mga cra kung merun man.. and kaninu?..
Dito lang ako ang check-up DIY or pag tinatamad magbuting-ting dinadala ko sa service bay gas station. :D
magpagkakatiwalaan ba un mga gasoline boy sa mga stations pra mgcheck ng abubut?
Dipende, may mga service bay na marunong talaga at certified mechanics yung iba thru experience lang natuto. Kung san ka madalas mag fill-up dun mo tanong kung may mga marunong na mekaniko, minsan may nag mamarunong lang kaya ingat ka.
Yup. As i recall, the turbo was running quite hot because humataw kami sa Lahar. Then came the river crossing. Sandali lang naman siguro nalublob yung Pajero. For sure nalublob yung turbo coz my foglamps (which are mounted on the grille) were damaged (inabot ng tubig).Originally Posted by odell
Kapag binasa mo ang intercooler, parang binabasa mo lang ang radiator. Only difference is air ang laman ng intercooler, hindi tubig. Sealed iyan. Diba hindi naman lumalabas ang coolant mula sa fins ng radiator?
As for the turbo, in theory pwedeng masira iyan dahil sa sudden surge of cold water. Pero buhay pa din ang turbo ko after all my 'aquatic' adventures. :mrgreen:
Btw, the intercooler does not suck air for the turbo. It just cools the air that has passed through the air filter.
