I was wondering if blowers are bad to run in the rain with the scoop exposed like it is wouldnt the air filter get really wet.
I have shot water into my carb while running to break some of the carbon buildup off of the valves. It just steams a little at the exhaust. It probably isn't the "best" thing for the engine, but down here in Houston, with 95% humidity all the time, we are always running water through our engines.
