OK, so now we know the ins and outs of the matter..........after removing all the water from the cylinders make sure there is no water left in the inlet manifold/air cleaner - or the serious consequences (an hydraulic lock) could happen just after starting. Replace all sealing and fire washers if injectors have been removed and don't forget to check the sump for water.
Be careful when restarting it.
Sorry if I got the wrong idea of your capabilities, but the basics of the compression ignition engine are of injecting fuel at around 150 bar or more into the cylinder at around 25 - 40 bar (you need that sort of pressure to adiabatically raise the air temperature above ignition point of the fuel) so the notion of letting water out of the injection line was a bit of a hoot.
