Will Water Enter the Engine If the Exhaust Pipe is Submerged?

[DiEleanor]

Water will not enter the engine if the exhaust pipe is submerged. It is recommended to drive at a steady speed in a low gear. The functions of the exhaust pipe are: 1. To expel the exhaust gases produced after engine combustion; 2. To reduce vibration and noise, extending the lifespan of the exhaust muffler system. Precautions for exhaust pipe maintenance include: 1. Close the choke when starting the engine cold in winter and open it promptly after the engine warms up; 2. Avoid installing windshields or decorative items in front of the engine and muffler, as they may affect heat dissipation; 3. Do not drive at low gears with high load for extended periods, as this may damage the engine and muffler; 4. Avoid revving the engine at high speeds while stationary for long durations.
