Like a bone-head, when topping off my oil, I poured maybe a teaspoon or two of water into the oil filler neck from what I thought was a quart bottle of oil. Will this do any damage to the engine? I can't imagine how it would but there seems to be a bit of a squeal now from the engine when I give it gas. Is this the water moving around in there? Will it not just evaporate?:sly: Should I change the oil (relatively fresh). Any advice or experience with this mishap would help! Thanks!

yes if it was me i would change the oil and filter. before you do that i'd add sea foam in where you put oil in and run it for a few minutes then change it.
