Question waterproof

I am not sure about waterproof but mine makes a strange sound after big puddles and the carwash. It is as if it is overspeeding or something. The sound resolves a few minutes after the offending event.

put silicone around your dist. cap, and fabricate rubber extentions, for the gap between the wheel well and the engine. The rolls of plastic barriers used for flower beds works good, but dont get it too close to the manifolds. It helps. Oh yeah, drive slower in the water. He He!
