Vehicle bogged, anyone tried this?

Other tip a mates used, if you drown a motor in a creek or bog hole, and its not safe to start your going to pull the plugs anyway, and you dont have a winch, is drive it out on the starter motor with no plugs in

Great for petrol motors I guess, diesel may be a bit harder.

If you drown a diesel the motor is buggered, more than likely it will have bent rods.
Ask me how I know.

Make a snorkel, that's what I've done, no problem for my turbo diesel.

Did someone say bogged?

A few years ago and took some retrieval!
