water in oil

ak768 · Jan 30, 2016

With all the rain in Dec and Jan. I
went to use the little can today and
it had a couple of quarts in water in
the oil. Drained it and put in fresh.
Still cranks by hand pretty hard. My
question is do I need to squirt
something through the spark plug
holes? Will that help? I'm going to
pull the plugs and now would be the
time. This water is a new one for me

If water ran down the exhaust into the one or more cyl's, but seeped past the rings and into the pan, it probably lightly rusted the cyl walls too. So yeah, squirting a little auto trans oil in the plug holes wouldn't hurt a thing. Leave the plugs out and crank it for awhile to loosen things up. When you go to start it, be perpaired to clean a few plugs, maybe twice depending on how much oil you put in.
