How to Repair a Single-Cylinder Diesel Engine That Has Taken in Water?
1 Answers
Quickly disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to prevent short circuits in the vehicle's electrical components due to water ingress. Immediately inspect the engine, starting with checking whether water has entered the engine cylinders. Water ingress can cause the connecting rods to bend, damaging the engine. Check if water has mixed into the engine oil. Water in the oil can lead to oil degradation, loss of lubrication, and excessive engine wear.
