Dodge ChargerThe Dodge Charger. The car that made its competitors shiver in the 60's is reborn in 2006 into a sleek sedan that can still send the competition home wimpering, the Dodge Charger.
Ok guys so I have a 08 Charger with 2.7 engine it is locked up on 2 cylinders I know the preffered method to correct this is a rebuild but no money any other suggestions like marvel mystery oil or something thanks in advance.
Then you likely bent/broke things as well. You can pull the plugs, and get the water out, but, expect that you will still only have a four cylinder engine, that won't last very long, if it will start at all.
Given my choice, I would simply replace the engine. Hydrolocking an engine does serious damage, and it isn't always apparent. Depending on your budget, you could go with a new long block, or, just get a low mileage replacement from the junkyard.
Well I have the facility and knowledge to rebuild so I think I will go that route.
If you have bent or broken rods, you should replace the crank as well then. Otherwise, the engine may not last long..... If the block got damaged as well, just replace the whole thing.
