Slam Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 As i have seen in other post,be carefull around the spark plugs....why...because it runs like a bag of poo,as i found out when someone close to me done the cleaning as me & wile e fitted front & rear brace's. Think brov might have a pick to add. Can anyone say if the remaining water that might be in 3 & 4 plug will be a problem with frezzing temp down here tonight/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedyAndy Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 i would try and get the water out as much as possible mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trebor69 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Suck it out with a straw ! Use some light absorbent material (old Tshirt etc) with a thin screw driver and feed it into the channels to soak up the remainder and then the heat from the engine will soon dry out the rest !!

Rich.2211 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I've had to dry mine out before, I managed to combine a hoover and the nozzle off a fuel can. I taped the nozzle off the fuel can (perfect fit into the spark plug well and over the spark plug) to the end of the hoover and sucked all the water out! Worked perfectly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgyRog Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Any sign of water in there will lead to a misfire, it needs to be totally dry Even if it runs alright on start up, as soon as the block gets hot it will start to misfire again As Buster said get an airline if poss and blow most of it out and then a heat gun to dry the last bit Good luck and do it for longer than you think you need with the heat gun, you don't want to have to take the TB off all over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a dizzy cap + rotor arm sat here in perfect working order, they may be taken but I'm not 100% sure yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
