Aquaplods or Aquaclods?

:D :D Yeah.....last I heard, engines need a clear intake and exhaust in order to operate.

Actually. they'd have been fine if they'd crawled through. It's the splash-up from hitting the water at speed that floods the ignition system and shorts out most vehicles.

That van has a diesel engine.
They got water in the intake and popped the head.

Makes you think of that ole joke, "how many coppers does it take to drive through a puddle"? :D

Well....I count 5 outside of the van....counting the driver who probably stayed in to steer....I guess it takes more than 6. :D :D

Diesel engine in that van? If that's the case, I wouldn't want to see the results.
