Does a motorcycle need repairs after wading through water?
1 Answers
It is advisable to visit a repair shop to replace some parts after a motorcycle has waded through water. Below is relevant information about vehicle wading: Introduction to vehicle wading: As the name suggests, vehicle wading refers to driving through low-lying areas or roads with accumulated water. This typically occurs during rainy weather when inadequate drainage leads to water accumulation in low-lying road sections. Precautions for vehicle wading: Before wading, observe the road conditions carefully; maintain steady power while in the water; after wading, inspect the electrical system. If a car stalls in water, the primary cause is usually water entering the exhaust pipe, though in some cases, electrical damage may also occur. Once a car stalls, do not attempt to restart it, as this could lead to water entering the intake manifold and damaging the valves, potentially resulting in severe engine failure. Instead, the car should be towed to a 4S shop immediately for professional handling.
