Post turbo mouse?

some lil' bastard ate two of the papertowel "plugs" i had sealing holes in my engine while its apart. he chewed his way through the plug of my turbo and the #2 head port. i used rags in the other three and figured i could get away w/ papertowels in the other two...i was wrong. should i pull the head and the turbo now...i dont think anything rigid would of fallin in (except some petrified mouse poop) or can i get away w/ a thorough shop vac'n out. i really didnt want to touch them yet because later in the year im going w/ a bigger turbo and head work.

whats the flash point of mouse turd anyway.....

If it were up to me and I had a second car, I would rather be safe than sorry!

Compressed air, It's the thing of the future. I'd see if the valve is closed, if it is just blow it out. As for the turbo I'd just blow on the opposite side from the plug.

Hm... he might've left something in there besides poop. Like dog food or an acorn or some other goody for later consumption...
