Spark Plug Removal to Expel Water from the Engine
If water has been ingested into the engine, it is important to remove the water as soon as possible by
removing the spark plug( s ) and using the starter system to rotate the engine for a short period to expel water
out of the cylinder( s ) . Verify that the air box has been drained of water before attempting to expel water.
Have a dealer service the engine immediately.
