Dodge Magnum Water in Engine | Oil Flush service

Consider yourself lucky that the engine runs at all.
You could have an oil flush service done at a repair shop. They can hook up a machine to flush the oil system without the engine running. The water that is still in the engine evaporates when the engine gets hot and will go to places that an oil change cant clean out. The flush service should take care of that.
