What to do after water in diesel engine ?

[gensetsteve]

I went top start our 2 cyl deutz powered green mech chipper tonight. Luckily the battery was poor because it sounded like it was hyd locked and I noticed water running out the exhaust. I think this has occured in the last week. Now being a generator engineer you would think I had come across this before and yes I have but they have been sat for months and needed strip down. I have removed injectors and spun as much water out as possible and sprayed wd 40 down. . I am gutted this has happened to a piece of our kit as it was parked in a lean to and the rain must have driven almost horizontal to get that much down the exhaust. Any advice before start up ?

oil down bores then a few turns by hand, change sump oil then a few turns on starter injectors back in and away you go.

Thanks will put a drop of engine oil down spin then refit injectors. Several oil changes and hope for the best. Will be fitting a new exhaust with rain flap.
