adamzan Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I bet it could run again too with a new ECU..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I bet it could run again too with a new ECU..... Heck, as long as the battery wasn't connected when it went in, if the ECU (and everything else) was dried out I bet it would run. (Presuming it was freshwater.)

GrimGreg Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Watched it earlier, they pulled it up and it rolled of the lift rig. Guess it went straight to a J-Yard afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandShark Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Watched it earlier, they pulled it up and it rolled of the lift rig. Guess it went straight to a J-Yard afterward. Front clip still looked good, lol. Was alot less involved than I would have thought. Float it, winch it on to that rig, tilt the rig, tow it off the ice. Pretty cool really. I wonder what that whole operation costs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Heck, as long as the battery wasn't connected when it went in, if the ECU (and everything else) was dried out I bet it would run. (Presuming it was freshwater.) Actually, it seems if you turn the truck off, before the ECU gets soaked, it will (or at least, can) live. SkinnyPedal swamped his rig twice last year, once we were able to get her running again, after drying out the ECU with WD40, and paper towels. The second time, we had no such luck....it was fried.

k9sar Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 hmmm.... the old engineering mind is visioning a modified toilet bowl float to cut power to the ECU in the event of flooding.... ring ring... ..Hello? Hey McGyver... I've got a new one for ya... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we had no such luck with a friend of mine's Hardbody when it got swamped. Tried to dry/clean the ECU, but it was too late. My 88's is in tuperware now.
