I guess I'll be the first to say it... something about all this just doesn't pass the sniff test. I'm not saying the OP is intentionally misleading anyone, but I can't help but note that (at least the 5.4s air box) is EXTREMELY well baffled to prevent real water from getting anywhere close to the filter. You would pretty much have to bury its main intake AND its drain holes in water and have the engine suck as if through a straw before water made it far enough to hurt anything. I have to assume the 6.2's air box is at least as well baffled? And if so, no amount of "splashing" is going to result in hydrolocking...No offense to the OP at all, but maybe we're not getting the full story? Could be the failure has nothing to do with a hydrolock at all?
