Sure, you can hydroplane, although it won't lead to hydro_locking_. I mean, if you hit a deep puddle in the road at 100 mph, the car wouldn't be able to get liquid into its intake.

'course, you'd have a whole _different_ set of problems to worry about at that point anyway, and probably wouldn't be thinking a whole lot about hydrolocking. Sphincter control, maybe...

Did you repair the coolant leak? The key is to keep an eye on the coolant level in the overflow tank to see if it drops down at all over time.
