Message :While putting on the plenum, I didn't realize that there was still water from the TB cooling in the piping. Well while putting it back on, some of it spilled down in to the heads. My original thinking was I'll start it up and it will just blow out with the exhaust...or am I completely wrong in thinking this? Should I disconnect an injector plug to keep it from firing?

1) Disconnect your fuel pump relay ( see instructions here )
[ www.ttzd.com ] click tech and then fuel filter replacement
2 Remove plugs and turn engine over to blow out the coolant from the cylinders
( see above site for plug removal: good time to replace or check gap ect. )

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO START WITH COOLANT/WATER IN CYLINDERs - POSSIBLE SERIOUS ENGINE DAMAGE CAN RESULT DUE TO HYDO LOCK !!!

Depending on the amount of coolant/water because the pistons cannot compress water !
