Default Water in Throttle body

If you get water into the tb how do you get it out? Also how much water does it take to break a piston?

I didn't get much water in my Jeep's engine.

2 weeks later the crank came out the bottom of the oil pan on hwy at freaking midnight.

If you somehow manage to add water to your intake.
and cranked the motor.
The damage is more than likely done.

Pull all 4 plugs.
Crank the bitch a bunch.
