OH MY GOD
I jet washed the R5 engine oviously got water every where and in the bores I think as it wouldn't start and kept locking up on the starter motor,
eventually I cleaned out the bores but it would only start if I took out no2 spark plug, then it would run and if I turned off it wouldnt start again
Now I have it running again ok, did I pressure lock the bores?
I wont do that in a hurry again I took it for a spin and it feels ok again just hope if I turn it off it will start again:eek:
 
If it actually stalled the starter, it probably didn't do any harm! If I were you I'd change the oil and filter as there's a good chance that a reasonable amount of water got into the sump and mayonnaise is not a good ingredient for engine lubrication :)
