Looking inside a $10,000 ZR1 Corvette Engine that was Salt Water Flooded and Sat for Months!

1. Greetings from Poland

2. oh! WOW and we have Toyota and their hydrogen cars, raving on and on how there is nothing but a water coming from their exhaust pipes.
   but here we can see at least 10-15 years older ZR1 that has literal water coming from it's exhaust.

3. ABC Auto and O'Reilly's they have an oil flush that you can buy flushes water out well

4. You've probably already figured it out by now, but that trans uses 5w30 syncromesh

5. Adam Sandler????

6. This is how I got my 2020 Chevy HD 2500 diesel from Copart auction with only 15k miles

7. Good job !

8. What kinda of pump were you using to get the remaining fluid water out of the diff it sounded electric??

9. You figure most people with the money for a car like that with knowledge of a hurricane coming would of drove it away.

10. It looks clean because of the diesel you put in the engine. Diesel is the best cleaner of oil……

11. I am A+ IF you ever need a kidney you wanna trade. I got you. Semper Fi.
    . Corvette 🇺🇸

12. Did… but they were flat…. pump them up and maybe

13. Have you started this thing

14. So where does the cycle’d oil and water-oil get disposed to?

15. WD 40. Water displacement formula 40.
    It grabs and holds water. It was never meant as a lubricant. It is not a lubricant.

16. i like the different flavor of hockey shirts

17. That thing is gonna run and drive like new again it is super clean inside the engine!

18. Rears need a gasket want hold fluids without one

19. This kinda reminds me of a quick insurance scam. Clean not wet interior. But engine and drive parts wet with salt water 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

20. I get so sad when I see cars in fd up condition but loved it when this car was saved!

21. I always thought that it was the electrical stuff (all of it) that the salt water ruins after a period of time……no way to get the salt out of so much of the harnesses, computer stuff and such.

22. You paid 10 grand for a car full of saltwater and no oil?? Hard to believe.

23. Nice to have all that money to blow off on rust bucket cars nice expensive hobby

24. I hate Corvettes.

25. Nice!

26. It really says something when a YouTuber can't even use his own sponsor LOL

27. Just run it

28. What happened to The Cracmeister!!! no more videos?

29. So??? What’s the outcome??? Where is the next video????

30. C4 too

31. You might use Permatex the “ the right stuff” as an oil pan gasket. Better than most gaskets .Good Luck

32. Very sad to see this happen to one of these gems. This was the "King of the Hill" during my teens. Low 4s and high 12s in the 1/4 mile bone stock.

33. Sam! Take care of yourself, you’re aging 4 years per year!

34. I can’t believe it’s already been five months! Feels like yesterday I was fleeing Florida

35. Content please!!

36. Years ago I was a Boat Dealer. I had a person bring an outboard engine into my shop that had a huge hole in the lower unit. He said he ran the engine for 2 weeks in that condition. I think the water acted as gear lube. If he had brought the engine to us right away we could have saved the gears. However the guy left it sitting for several weeks after last using it and the lower gears rusted beyond repair. Therefore with so much water in the various components the lack of air probably saved them from rusting. The only caution is to run the car enough to keep oil circulating through all the bearings. Then plan to change the fluids several more times until you no longer get oil that looks a peanut butter color. Good Luck you might save this one. I am a 1993 ZR-1 owner.

37. Samcrac’s name must come from how addictive his channel is. 3 weeks without a video from him and I’m having serious withdrawals!!

38. I can't post pictures of my cars but they are beautiful trust me.. 1991 300zx azure blue with blue interior 5spd

39. ZF-6 transmission gets motor oil grade, not gear oil. Service interval is every 10,000 miles. I use Amsoil Syncromesh. Capacity is 2.2 quarts. Pretty sure you should inspect the clutch, slave cylinder, throw-out bearing, dual mass flywheel, pilot bearing. Good luck!

40. What ever happened to the mustang?

41. Well, weren't these engines made by Mercury Marine….They like water……Love the ZR1….good find!

42. What are you doing?!?!!!!! Where is the new video????!?!!!!!?!?????!!!
