Is the driver side hot as well?
Did you recently use the brakes? Because they tend to do that.

Could also be a wheel bearing. Need more information.

This advice is how you get people convinced their motor is seized because they can’t turn the crank pulley hard enough for a compression stroke.

Pictures, please.

Did the previous owner say?
Buying a flooded car without some serious knowledge of what you’re doing is almost certainly going to be a bad time.

If you switch back to stock exhaust, you might even be able to sell off the old set and keep the cost down.

If it says it’s petrol/gas inside the fuel door and nothing indicates otherwise, it’s probably some other problem.
If they did a diesel conversion and didn’t tell you, it’s still not on you. Either way, I’d call the boss and explain, hopefully they’re not an AH!

No. The injectors, if not also the pistons, would seize looooong before a runaway. Not to mention the pump burning up due to lack of lube.

Youtube is your friend.
So is money. You’re not building a motor from scratch with hand tools.

You might not need to drop the tank, but it absolutely needs to be drained and washed out.

What kind of vehicle do you have? Tanks are almost never hidden behind anything else, so the hardest step is actually getting it down from the vehicle.

Go to a locksmith, or a GM dealer.

That’ll be engine oil, almost certainly.
Only other possibility is coolant.

If they offer the same level of shock absorption and have the same travel you should be OK. As a general rule shocks should at least match each other even if you’re not swapping them out as a pair.

There are also drain plugs on the bottom of your vehicle. If you got partially submerged, any decent mechanic will pull off one of the rubber plugs on the underside and drain the water out.

If it comes full of a fluid, it stays full of a fluid.

Make sure they swap out the filter on a drain and fill. If it came full of oil, it stays full of oil. Unless you take it apart.

Change your oil as recommended in the owner’s manual.
Nothing needs a flush unless it’s clogged, and even then… If you’re at the point of trying to flush out a clog you should be considering a rebuild/replacement.
