Tell your husband to not ever do that. This isn't the '60s any more. There are computers and modules all over that engine than can be ruined by doing that. It's also illegal to do that now too unless you capture every drop of water that comes off the engine. You're just going to have to let it dry out and hope nothing has been damaged permanently.

If he was a real perfectionist, he would have researched doing that first. LOL
