ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    its called hydrolock, when you suck up too much water in your intake, the water goes into the combustion chamber and causes it to lock up. ive had this problem before with my blazer. i dont know how easy it would be to un seize a honda but i know all u have to do for a blazer is get some marvel mystery oil and put it in the spark plug holes little at a time and manualy turn the engine over by hand, do this several times until you are sure its not gonna seize again, then start it up and turn off, wait then start it again and let it idle until smoke clears.

          and also what does it exactly do? does it evaporate water or something?

                lol its a mystery. nah jk, its just like oil. it doesnt sound like anything special but it mysteriously works. it doesnt evaporate water, it just breaks the cylinders free. (if its seized)

                              I would pull all the spark plugs out, and see if you can turn it over by hand. If you can't, there is a good chance that a rod is bent or broken. If it turns over easily with the plugs still out, turn it over with the starter for a bit, should spray all the water out the spark plug holes.
