Honestly, just bar it over. Either it will move or it won't. If you can rotate it through a full cycle, put the GPs back and crank it for like 30 seconds with the starter. Then try to actually start it.I'll do it tomorrow. Yep on on the oil plug hole rodding, did it once, help the gunk to come out better, will do that again a few more times after diesel sits in pan. Yep on the oil swap, 2 or 3 times after a short amount of time driving it, thats if I can get it running. Still a little blown away, that it would run at all after the water. I still worry about the cylinders, rings, pistons being rusted together. I havent finished removing the GP's, really a PITA to get to the GP's in the front of the motor behind the A/C compressor and behind the alternator with all the other stuff in the way. I'll try a 3/8" ratchet, a wobbly and a deep socket and git er done. Will get after it again tomorrow, wish me luck

I'm thinking there's a good chance you actually didn't get any water through the cylinders, just down the back of the motor. In which case, the cylinders are clear and fine.
