[QUOTE="gink595, post: 16824, member: 1675"] I would guess as the other fellas, I wouldn't jump right in and turn the motor over either, i guess it depends on the size of the glow plug hole and how much is in the combustion chamber, you could still have the possibility of bending stuff, valves, conn. rods....etc. if the fluids or fuel cannot move out of that hole faster than the rotating assembly is moving it has a possibility. I would turn the motor by hand a couple of times to drain the cylinders down and then crank it over with the ignition. In the 7.3 powerstrokes you have a similiar situation when you replace injectors the cylinders fill up with fuel and oil, and you have to use a vacumn pump and drain the cylinder before turn the key over.
