Moving on its own first time since the motor being hydro locked. Due to school and work, I spent nearly 6 months replacing the motor, it feels good finally getting it back on the road!

......sooo...snorkel next??

I wish it was story like that. But got gas on Friday, it was parked all day on Saturday (heavy rain) went to go start it Sunday morning and hear the amazing sound of a rod knock! Pull off the intake manifold and their is layer of water inside! Next pull off the oil pan and I started pulling out chucks of rod! I still have no idea how water got inside of the engine, everything is stock and wasn’t even driven in the rain!

What the...? So no clue what happened or how? Have you owned it for a long time? This is weird.
 
I’ve considered this but it was locked up and I’m the only one that’s has keys! But it doesn't make since due to the air filter being dry but somehow water getting inside the of the intake manifold!

Are you sure it wasn't coolant from a possible blown head gasket or a cracked water jacket?

Possible but their was actually water in the intake and not coolant, so I’m not sure!

Still on the original tank of fuel that the motor hydro locked, and I put it to work tonight! Besides a exhaust leak on the driver side everything seems good to go!
