having not tried this method myself, though I do have a garage sale crock pot ready to go in my shop, I have read that placing the rinsed engine in the oven on a low temp 200o for a hour or so works well to dry out the engine, most of my glow engines are 4 stroke so there are lots of nooks and crannies for water to hide in.
any one baked

there engines on low before, potential problems etc..?
