Default Like A Cat In Water . . . . .

My teryx dies everytime I get the exhaust outlet under water for any period of time. Then it will restart but wont run well enough to pull itself out of the water. As soon as I get pulled out and the exhaust clears the surface of the water it will start up and run just fine. Its like it cant run with the slightest amount of back pressure on the exhaust.
Does everyone else have this same problem or is there something I can do to resolve it. And I mean something besides snorkeling the exhaust. I hate the way those look.

Like I said, I dont like the way snorkeled exhausts look. Plus mine is an LE so it will be kinda hard to tilt the bed with a exhaust pipe in the way.

Pin it / keep on the gas, so there is more exhaust flow/preasure going out which keeps the water from going in. That or stay out of the deep water.

You could remove the snorkle easy if it was set up to go off of the 3 bolts at back of the exhaust for deep water trips and go to a standard tip when you want the dump bed.

I fixed with snorkels, you can install them without interfiering with the tilt bed and hide them behind the seats.
