Mine hydro locked 20 miles from home. Until then i had no idea i had an issue unit i tried to start it. I got lucky as it did not destroy the motor. I bumped the starter a few times thinking it was a flywheel starter issue. Lucky more me my motor is a little tired and the water bypassed the rings/valves finally and it started.

It is running great now, 331,000 on this 350 and still doesn't more than a quart every 5k miles.
