Sister in law went to deep engine died got it out water in exhaust water in cycinder water in the oil drained replaced plug gettin blue arc from plug but even with startin fluid wont start this is a 2010 360 what do we do next

 

drained the gas out of tank and carband replaced with new gas? check electrical connections? hopefully someone else will chim in here for you also....

 

Did anybody try to start it with water in the cylinder? You want to take the plug out and blow any water out with the plug not installed. Otherwise it can cause a hyrdrolock and ruin the engine. There could be quite a bit of damage because water won't compress. I agree with draining the carb and fuel lines. Go from the top down.

 

I agree with Moose...you should go from the top on down when trying to get the water out of everything(even the differentials) and definetly get the water out of the cylinder!!! Hydrolock will screw it all up Good Luck and let us know how it turns out.

 

drained exhaust at seen before trying to start but brother in law tried to start it afterward after it died in water sister in law tried to start it . if it is lock will it have to be rebuilt maybe just the top end

 

It depends on what, if any damage occured. Most times it can cause bad damage, like Moose said, water does not compress! So if the water doesnt give way.....then something else has to! If you have to rebuild the top end...while its apart, you might as well get the bottom done as well just to be on the safe side

 

I'd think about getting the compression checked to be on the safe side. I'm not sure what it should be for the Kawi 360. If water did get into the cylinder, trying to start it is not good. Hope it's nothing major.

 

well seems we didnt get all the water out brought to shop cost 225.00 drained oil and gas still had water in cylinder and crankcase he cleaned it all out and fired up no problems everything checked out according to my brother in law thanks for the info

 

If I were you I would change the oil a couple of time to be sure you get ALL the moisture out!!!!!!

 

Glad it didn't rip up the engine.
