Default Plenum

OK so I have dreaded water in the plenum area (under the brake reservoir).
Assuming I can somehow pump it out, what's the best way to dry out the affected area as much as possible?

Thanks

Andrew

Doesn't need pumping. Just the drain holes cleaned out.---It will then dry out by itself.--Of course when it rains it will get damp again but that will not be a problem.---Keep it unblocked and all will be well.

Hi Andrew.
Seeing you have a 190 and 260 it is not that much of a problem for the ECU, but still best to drain it out, have you never read this thread i thought everyone had, the 260 drain holes are very small compared to the rest of out cars.
