Fun times. I have been working outside on the engine and had the air intake tube off. I put the hood down last night when finished working. It rained overnight. I noticed water collected in the pipe going into the turbo. I stuck a shop vac in the hole and sucked up all visible water. I suspected/hoped the water wouldn't have gone into the turbo, but guessing it did. I also checked the oil dipstick and it was not milky. I tried to start the engine after, it turns over but doesnt start.
There is standing water on the V-8 valley under the injection pump, but that shouldn't matter, correct? I figured if I moved the vehicle and the engine got hot that water would fall off and/or evaporate.
What is the next step? Taking all the glow plugs out and turning it over? Get water out of the "V"? How screwed am I?
