yep hydrolock, mad rain last nite here in orlando, about knee high flood just came out of nowhere and then bang engine died and when i try to crank it, it makes just a click sound... meng how much is this thing gonna cost??? oh i have a 94 dx stock engine

skribblah

if you even want to keep your stock engine.. i woudlent waste money on it. look into investing into a b18b swap or a b16 swap for now to be on the best bang for your buck. but when you hydrolock your engine, basicly your rods are smashed. maby the cyl. walls but i dont know.

and if you crank the engine when their are broken rods and peices in there, your just throwin around debris.

Click link in sig. Go to MUSINGS, then GOING HYBRID.

great excuse for that swap that you need!

repairing that motor would cost most than it's worth.

i agree with these guys. if you really cannot afford a swap come up and see me in valdosta. i have a couple of y7's I might be selling mine soon- a clutch and header

Just a clicking noise? Your engine is probably just wet. Let it dry out and try cranking it again.

Don't waste your time trying to rebuild, too time consuming and you will spend more than buying another engine.
You could buy another replacement motor for $100-$300.
Or you could B16 ob1 swap for about $2000; B18B swap $1500...

and people wonder...."do i really need an AEM bypass valve?"

i'd say this is the definitive answer.

yah, good chance for swap
