I'm quite impressed actually, That took alot to actually kill it, 10mins of on/off video, plus everything inbetween.
And that was with messing with the engine - Water in the oil, and no radiator cap.

If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

I don't exactly understand the last part of that last sentence, but water in the crankcase is different than in the cylinders. Water in the cylinders won't compress, so rods bent and/or break (and maybe other stuff). Biggest issue with water in the crankcase is it boiling off.Originally posted by skilzz View Posti think it stayed alive because the internal parts arnt that big... hence less rotational mass. my cousins h23 sucked up water through a cai and the rod came through the block 2 weeks after it was driving normal

I'd bet it died more from overheating and the water boiling off than the water itself. Water does a fine job of separating your shoes from the surface of a floor and putting you on your ass
