Hi,
I have a pretty stock 1997 Landcruiser (petrol) without any lift kit or bigger tyers, snorkel, breathers, etc.
A couple of weeks ago while river crossing the car just lost power and shutdown.
It would crank and won't start. After a few minutes, it started luckily and got me out of the water.
So perhaps the distributor got wet and when it dried due to engine heat, it started.
I checked the airbox after getting out of the water and driving the car under 1KM.
What is confusing me till today, that how come there was NO WATER in the Air Box. It was completely dry. The water was almost bonnet high.
Can someone please explain this? Thanks
