A flooded car is a terrible thing. The adverse effect a flood can have on your car can be quite extensive. Sometimes, you might not even be aware of the problems until much later. The good news is some issues can be fixed without taking to a professional; but others will need expertise and can be costly.
Car Problems and Fixes
Listed below are some of the more common and most probable ones to occur and ways they can be taken care of, so you can attempt to salvage your car.
If there are signs of damage, then loosen the oil drain plug to allow clogged water to run off; change the oil and the filter too. And spray oil on the cylinders because that helps.
There are of course damages that are too extreme for you to handle; or damage that renders a car component completely unusable. If such is the case, then the component in question must be replaced. This may result in engine repair or engine replacement.
More often than not though, a flooded car can be up and running again as long as it is properly cleaned and taken care of. It will take a while for everything to return to being functional, so patience is a must. You should absolutely get your car checked out by a qualified and experienced mechanic to be sure that everything is as it should be so you don’t end up with a bigger problem later down the road.
