Posted by evan2, Feb-20-02 04:24 AM
ok lets just say it rained last night and the cover i had over my hood kinda got lose and i had some water there.

then i covered it again a little better this morn and it poured..
havent seen it yet..
but when i go home ill have to dry it all out..

now if i got any water in the plug wells how do i go about drying it all off safely???

someone said spray wd40 all over. because it repels water..

im going to dry it off good then go drive cuz i have to be somewhere later .. its getting sunny now.. i wanna go home and uncover it and let the sun dry it

Get a shop vac, tape a piece of tubing to the end of it and suck the water out. I used this to get oil out of my spark plug wells when the o rings went bad.

Try the shop Vac or if you have an air compressor thats what I used. Just take the plug wires off and shoot about 50-60psi in there, works like a charm!
