DEEP Water KILLS Cars Who Dare to Cross the Ford!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

MERCH: adamc3046.com
After multiple requests, I re-visited the infamous Rufford ford to capture the scenes that happen there on a daily basis. Various KZreadrs use it as their base to capture cars attempt a ford crossing, and on this particular day the ford was quite high, after a couple of days of a lot of rainfall. Resultantly, quite a few of the cars who carried even the smallest amount of speed died on the spot.

Notice how cars that creep then floor it suddenly ingest water even though they have already crossed? Idle/low rpm, the system will drain. You comment is absolutely false. The only way the motor will stall/hydrolock is if a large amount of water makes it past the throttle body and sits in the intake manifold waiting for the driver to floor it and ingest it. This is why low engine speed is key. It allows to air box to drain after crossing too. You can’t just floor it as soon as you cross. The rods are already bent. Remember, these clowns are flooring it. It is possible to hydrolock without bending anything.

    I think If you fully rev the engine the risk of a engine death is smaller. As long the engine keeps running the water just boils away. But to much water - > the RPM Drops until the engine is off.. The water is still in the engine cant boil because its to much to still have a flammable mixture and the engine dies due the water -> rust. Or?

    I think I saw a snorkel pipe air intake sticking up above the windshield on one of the LR products. A Datsun 4 x 4 I used to own had vents on the transfer and final drive units attached to pipes that extended up high on the firewall and then turned down in a sort of gooseneck in an attempt to keep water out. Also even if the water level is lower than your airbox intake,wave action at certain speeds could cause water to splash up into the airbox and kill the engine. Possibly in some poorly designed cases hitting as little as a few inches of puddle at high speed like 70 mph or 90 km/hr could cause a fatal hydrolock by throwing water up into the airbox.

Both the DMAX and MU-X have an impressive wading depth of 800 mm (2.62 ft). Recently, we took our SUV to an earthquake-affected mountain range, and it performed remarkably well, effortlessly navigating through the challenging terrain and worn down roads. (and they can last for a long time)

    Most drivers don't have a clue where their air intake is and manufacturers have a woeful habit of placing them too low and at the front of the vehicle where they are vulnerable to water ingress. An engine swallowing any water will be catastrophic, costing £1000s to repair.

    I must say it's interesting how fragile engines can be. These cars are largely breaking down due to becoming hydrolocked (i.e. the pistons can't move against the weight of the water in the cylinders - and sometimes the rods bend hence the knocking) or the water pushing the radiator in. I've seen a lot of these clips and in many cases the electrics survive and you can still use the lights and infotainment.

    Have been there, done that. In my local area I got taken in by someone successfully negotiating the other way and giving me reassurances. The flooded area was long and not totally visible from the starting point. In a 5 series BMW I set off and it was a lot deeper than I had given it credit for, a lot deeper. My headlights were under water and the level was nearing the glass at my shoulder. I thought the car would float never mind stop. I did negotiate the flooded area and my carpets were not even wet afterwards (well done BMW), a 4X4 stopped at the other end of the flood and said his was going to try until he saw me and then thought better of it. Not a situation I ever intend to get into again.

    BMW, dry carpets, a working engine and water that deep doesn't add up. Cars are extremely buoyant when sealed. The full weight of your car and then some will have been completely displaced in less than 18 inches of water, that's true for even super heavy Teslas. Over the footprint of a 5 Series water that deep would probably weigh over 2'000kg, maybe even over 2'500kg, so you should definitely have been floating in water deeper than that where the body of the car is 12 inches below the water line. You saw the fiesta floating here at a shallower point in the ford to where the depth sign is measuring, so even with the wave peak it was probably barely 2 foot deep there. The intake of BMWs of most more recent models are all extremely low from what I understand and therefore would have been underwater even in standing water of a depth nearing door handles, nevermind the wave from pushing through. If you're recalling those details accurately, it was a miracle you got through and even more of a reason to not repeat it that you maybe even realise.

    @@markwright3161 The headlights effectively going out because they were underwater, with water coming over the bonnet, and the water level approach the height of my drivers side window are vivid in my memory even now. As I said the car remained completely dry. The car floating was very much at the forefront of my mind and perhaps it did a some point though I was never conscious of that. Something I left out was there was a turn in my route that prevented me to see my exit on entering the water and on that turn was a farm gate in the Cornish hedgerow. That was the source of the water and it was flowing through there like a river, and I mean by that it had flow and it had depth, that frightened the life out of me realising I would need to pass by it. The possibility to stop, or go back given the depth I was encountering at that moment, did not seem open to me.

You had to have someone looking out for you or something, whatever saying fits your beliefs, because flowing water as well is almost always fatal for the vehicle and sometimes also its occupants. I'll stick by calling it a miracle myself. :)

    Also you can see most drivers splashing the water hard, which depending on air intake position can choke even a high car. It is also important to drive on low gear with high revs. Otherwise exhaust gets clogged. Additionally automatic transmissions and 4x4 electronic hubs need oil change after being submerged in water. A lot of things to consider.
