"You'd have to be a pretty incompetent automotive engineer to inject enough water to cause hydrolocking."
Ever hear of a shadetree mechanic? I've had to fix up after many of them. Two hydrolocked engines, rusted out radiator (they put deionized water in the reservoir, straight up) and plenty of failed turbo modifications.
I would not be surprised to see someone try doing this themselves and failing miserably.
- dpark 10y agoNo, I've never heard of Bosch or BMW hiring shade tree mechanics to design engines. I'm relatively confident that this isn't a real issue. I think your concern about weekend mechanics is also unwarranted because most of them aren't morons. The ones who are will be morons regardless and manage to destroy cars regardless.
