Intake plenums Question/Help
Hello, Yesterday I was doing some work and I had my monkey butt off and rags stuffed into the intake plenums. Well along came a hellacious downpour and the rag on the driver side was soaked. Should I be concerned? Should I leave it be, change the oil? Not sure so I thought I would ask.
Thanks

You can pull the glow plugs to clear the cylinders by cranking. It's not likely you have a problem, but you don't mess with even a remote possibility of hydrolock. I'd shop vac the intake before any other move. Everything else maintained under the VCs? Good time to check.
I say that more for the readers, because I recall you've already been in there.
You don't believe in Saran Wrap with a rubber band or a hood?

Yea since it was the driverside(thank goodness) I popped the vc and checked the cylinders for water. My biggest concern was if I had to change oil again since I just changed it and put T6 in. I did go and buy more since it was on sale at Oreilys for 20 a gallon with 2 $5 mail in rebates just to be on the safe side.
Thanks for the info tug.
