Default Lynnwood Neighbourhood July 11, 2004

Anyone in Edmonton will know that Lynnwood / Rio Terrace had flooded streets on July 11, 2004. Countless people tried to drive their vehicles through door deep water, only to blow apart their engines when the water got into the engine from the air box. There were right offs like crazy as alot of cars and trucks were not worth the cost of replacing an engine at new cost.

Water does not compress. Heads do crack. Piston rods blow under pressure.

Anyway, good luck to the fellow, and I hope I am wrong. Maybe he shorted out the engine control module before it drew water, and he is OK.
