- If you are stuck in flooded areas, make sure the water level is still below the hole exhaust and ignition systems. No need to turn off the engine while the exhaust is submerged. Exhaust gas pressure will block the water coming into the exhaust. But if it reached the engine off, exhaust pressure so that water does not have any direct way into the exhaust.
