How to Determine if Water Has Entered the Exhaust Pipe?
1 Answers
If the engine oil color appears abnormal and turns milky white, it indicates that water has entered the fuel tank or engine. Check each pipe for water ingress, inspect the air filter and the lower housing of the air filter for obvious signs of water entry, and examine the intake pipe and intake manifold for clear traces of water passage. When water enters the engine, since water is difficult to compress, the piston cannot reach its original top dead center position, resulting in a noticeable downward shift in the top dead center position.
