Hopefully the dist floods and the car dies before there is sufficent water in the air box to hydro lock the engine.
Another point of contention in the connections to the fuel pump. If these are bad a good dose of water will point this out.

fortunately i had read one of your posts from awhile ago and the tube from the timing belt cover to the air box was already disconnected.
i need to take a good look at the car when i have a day off from work. just trying to get prepared so i know what to look at when i get out there
