Just my two cents.



    Hmmmmmmm, water in the intake ha?

    I agree that WD40 is good for electrics but not so for electronics once they short out. That's why later examples of components such as winches for example have there electronics incased in a silicon style substance. Not sure how it dispels the heat though

Thanks Steve F for the guide in the Favorite Club Destinations section.

    Now coming to the real issue. The creeks were flooding with water from last night's rain. Most of the crossings we did the water was upto my bonnet. One crossing was perticularly deep and we had to drive against the flow for about 15-20 seconds. And my bonnet was under under water for almost all that time. my passenger noticed water gushing out from under the dash on the passenger side. With gushing I mean about 3 litres in 15 seconds. Normally the jeep has never leaked in rain. Is this normal or should I be worried ?

    Cheers and thanks for ur advise in advance
