Just a warning:
Be VERY careful to dribble SLOWLY if you try the procedure listed
below. If you get too much water in any one cylinder you get a
hydraulic lock. What this means is that the piston will not be allowed
to complete it's stroke. The water WILL NOT yield, so the piston and/or
the rod and/or the crank will. End of engine.
