I would not use water. I flush out the top and bottom of the engine block with a degreaser gun that attaches to my air hose and a separate hose on the gun is inserted into a container of diesel fuel. When you press the button/trigger on the degreaser gun it uses the venturi effect to suck out diesel fuel and mixes with the air flow to flush out grease and grim around the outside of the bearing,journals, valves, etc. I have used it on small and large diesel and gas engines with good results. On the larger diesel I can insert it into the oil pan drain and/or valve cover openings to flush out the top and bottom. After a flush, I let the diesel perk down to the pan before I add new oil. If you had any heavy flush or contaminates in the engine you can flush, refill with good used oil, drain, flush, add old oil, flush, and then add new oil. IIRC, I bought the degreaser gun at HF or Northern Tools.
