Monsoon season is here

[Guest funng]

bros and sis,

in view of the coming monsoon season, do watch out for floods and such, esp bukit timah area! maybe some tips and tricks to get by?

for example, i have heard that when flooding, dun stop accelerating, don't let water go in from exhaust, any truth in that?

what about cars parked and flooded in? total damaged or partial for engine, perhaps interior gone.

seen a few merc on papers and asiaone, flood until doors already. kana flood how? aftermath?

so long as your engine is on, water wont go into your exhaust as there is a continuous stream of air coming out.

but water should NOT be allowed to enter your INTAKE... which would lead to a STALL and new engine.

if your engine not on, this kind of flood shouldn't dmg it.. just let the engine bay dry out can liao.
