Will this Sinkhole Flood Salvage Dodge Viper Start and Run?

1. wtf is wrong with you. rebuild the engine

2. Just put it in a bag of rice

3. Yo, I’ll buy that gas off you

4. Every packed bearing on that pully system has probably been washed out, I'm sure.

5. Greetings from Poland.

6. Nice way to check water 😅

7. I have made a car in flood 1991 Honda prelude all the way under water I made it run

8. Cheap oil filters😮😢??

9. Won't the rust remover,,attack aluminium??

10. And if you have paid so much money for the vehicle when you do a perfect job see the car is properly cleaned and services to 100% like it come out of the factory these are the kind of things you have to think to yourself

11. I know you can start the car up and trying to stop the carpet since it has been in a plug damage or any kind of water damage but if you have more money and sense if you was going to keep it or sell it think you got it started you are causing more problems and what it is worth little bit of grain of sand or salt it will start to wear your fails and with every single or joint moving parts in the engine that would be the same with your steering column power steering you're front bushes your your joints will have great grit and Sand and salt in it when you have sorted the car out you'll have to get wear and tear a lot quicker what you would in the first place

12. If you have still got sand in the engine and think of putting stuff through the engine trying to filled it out to clean the inside and trying to start the engine out fair enough it will fire up but in the long run you have made things 10 times worse it wouldn't matter if it was so water or from a beach or whatever it is with sand and Grit always salt or if it completely roll hit a fire hydrant and dumped got a hole through the ground and the whole part of the front end of the car when inside the hole and water log the engine it wouldn't matter if it is freshwater or saltwater because most Road are being treated when it is winter with salt on the road and sometimes some of the Earth or ground is send as well and if you think you have cleaned the engine thoroughly if you think and still got pieces of sand or grit inside the engine or you are doing is making the engine was any kind of friction with grit or sand or salt water in the long run it will cause damage really badly the only way you are going to get rid of the salt water or the sand or grit in your vehicle is stripping it all the way down to the last nut and bolt the things you are doing putting cleaning staff to help the engine or trying to get it sorted out you might as well strictly ending then clean every single cavity and hole and with your joints pistons and crank Arms with a deep steam clean

13. These cars where junk at best pre flooded. Especially the engine and that huge intake that almost always has a leak

14. set it on fire?

15. Yeah he takes the adventurous route…

16. USA fuel prices dirt cheap lol what mean high prices🤣

17. i use gasbuddy in canada

18. Top of this motor needs to come apart anything short of that is stupid

19. another less sticky methoid of getting rid of rust is vinige

20. Good steel takes a "little" time to rust. Cast is a more porous. But creates a "skin" ..from going deeper. Steel, once it takes hold, it penetrates deep!
    Time was your friend.

21. Wow i like this video gives alot on information how to treat the viper thanks .

22. but why was there oil in the oil filter…? Shouldn't it have been full of water too? I'm not really sure how oil is transferred through the oil filter but you would think it would be one of the lower places in the car for oil to go and since water is more dense than oil I would have thought it would be full of water.

23. Dude.. just pull the whole wire harness off and then clean all the connectors.

24. Sand is in the motor? RIP

25. That water is not going to hurt that car change all the fluids flush out the engine put transmission fluid in the engine then put some alcohol in the engine it will dry up the water the chance the plugs start the engine let it run for a while then change the oil again

26. Hi Sam, This was my car. Happy to help fill in any info you need. Still sick about it. Was absolutely immaculate!

27. Run the engine for a few minutes then drain and refill the oil.

28. Should shoot some WD-40 into the cylinders to break up the rust

29. 3:58 3.50$ for a Gallon of gas I miss that

30. If this dont work then put a 392 or a hellcat engine. Will be a more fuel efficient upgrade vs the old school costly v10

31. There's a world of difference between getting an engine like this to run and it still being ok a few thousand miles down the road. It might spin over but those bores / rings, if nothing else, will be shot.

32. Don’t put soda into an engine

33. At least act like you know what you’re doing. Did I win another prize?

34. Ad king

35. Pennzoil sucks

36. So I work as a mechanic where we contract for accident repaiers. We get flood damaged cars all the time and that engine will be stuffed.

37. Nothing a pressure washer can't do real quick 🤣

38. I am 9 minutes in. This viper will start. That was a lot of water, but not a lot of rust and corrosion. I think if it turns over, and you're able to get the rest of the debris caught in those oil filters. This car will be running. And that engine may not be as bad as expected. Especially due to the fact that it's SALT water.

39. I would never turn over or try to start an engine that has been under water.

40. Evaporust is good stuff.

41. Allot bad taste euro trash but you like the CAPS that one positive 😜

42. So how much to build a beast I have a 300

43. SEND IT!!

44. All those bearings are going to be trash within hrs. Then they’ll beat that entire rotating assembly & valve train to absolute trash. All to save a little time & few 100$ on a refresh. Not smart imo.

45. This guy is extremely smart with cars. I wonder he learned to work on them

46. Sand will be stuck between the pistons and cylinders, will eventually kill the engine.

47. Found you from Ratarossa visit in UK and a great car channel. Really respect your 'give it a go' approach. All the best from UK..

48. If it does fire,it won’t be for long.

49. it will run but for how long?
