Skid your experience has moved snorkle higher up on my priority list of things to do (not that we have too many water crossings in Auckland area - actually we have none really).
Hope your good luck continues from this morning.

Get the water out of the diffs and gearbox and rip all the interior out to save the body and fittings, the motors farked
Re: WANTED URGENT: 80 series snorkle for Skid
What about the weekend after?, its worth pulling the motor out and stripping it and seeing what damage there is...., if its toast anyway it needs to come out....
Someone may have a 1hz motor lying round or even parts?

just because it wont turn over doesnt mean its knackers at all, it just needs some parts.
as DB said, get it out, strip it and then think about it, get the turbo off and clean and dry and lubed especially as its probly sweet but wont be for long with water in it.
If you already know everything, DON'T ask bloody questions!!

Sad to hear Skid
Bloody good job to get that far so quickly!
Fingers crossed the conrods/valves are ok. Good time to chuck some new rings and bearings in

Re: WANTED URGENT: 80 series snorkle for Skid
Don't know what you are on about, we didn't do anything to the motor.. it didn't fall of the trailer on the way in to town either...
Jerry wasn't driving with the trailer on either...
guess you will know the full extent of damage soon enough!
PS you need more beer in the back of the 80, it's all gone.. and the fridge inside is also empty
