Water in the Cylinder
Yesterday I was cleaning out my engine bay and one of my spark plug wires wasn't completely in all the way and water got inside. Is this bad? I drove last night and today and it's fine so far. This morning I pulled the spark plug wire out and it's still a little wet inside there. Any advice?
Thanks

Run the engine at idle for a bit, there is probably some rusting of the cylinder walls, the quicker you get that rust off, the better off you will be. Use a propane torch to heat up the cylinder to remove the water, then retighten your spark plug and let it idle for a bit, recheck your spark plug for any rust deposits and clean it if nessesary.
I doubt there's much rust, there's oil covering everything in there. My friend blew up his motor, and has left the valve cover off for over 3 weeks now through the rain and everything. There's not a bit of rust anywhere.
