What to Do If Water Enters the Exhaust Pipe?
1 Answers
If you encounter water entering the exhaust pipe and the engine stalls, do not attempt to force a restart. Instead, call for rescue services immediately. After simple cleaning and drying, the engine will resume normal operation. The repair costs are relatively low, and insurance companies are likely to cover the claim. When driving through water, try to follow the principle of 'fast on sand, slow in water' to avoid rushing through. This is because the waves created by the wheels can easily enter the exhaust pipe, causing the vehicle to stall.
