Be careful about driving in even low flood conditions.
I had a mechanic check the connecting rods on a quad 4 engine after a client drove through standing water, rushing to get his wife to the hospital.
We conjectured that water was somehow sucked into the engine through the air intake and hydraulic pressure actually bent the rod.

I seized up a quad 4, driving through water, about 13 years ago.
