They are getting them out after how long? whats the laws like around u? cuase i know here if as soon as it goes in its a $500 fine and 500 for every day after that for truck car sled 4 wheeler anything. so if u go in ur get it out as soon as possible here befor anyone calls the EPOs or Staties.

not sure what the law is but hopefully not that much. not sure if they can get them this weekend maybe next.. it would really hurt if it was 500 a day thanks to all the info guys

Just because it went under water doesn't mean that u have 2 tear the engine down. Drain the water out of the engine, change the oil in the reservoir, change the gas, drain the carbs, remove the drive belt and then fire it up. If u do this within a couple of days of getting it out of the water the engine will be OK. Change the chaincase oil later. Grease job and try to dry out the seat, gauges etc. Binderdondat!
