Re: This Sux
run an air compressor line into there. then turn the engine over a number of times with the plugs removed. a little water never killed no engine tho, an old mechanics trick is to remove one of the vacuum lines from a carb and stick it in a bottle of water which in turn sucks the water through the engine to remove carbon buildup.

Re: This Sux
Umm, running an engine with water in it is a bad idea!! Water will not compress when it is in the engine like fuel and air does.
Disconnect the sparkplug wires (all of them). Spray a little WD-40 in there (a little in each cylinder). Turn the engine over for a little bit, with the plugs still disconnected. That should cause the water to displase enough that it will be fine. Trust me, from owning a large selection of 4 wheel drive vehicles, WATER IS BAD FOR AN ENGINE!!!
