Default Little bit of water in the intake

Hey guys, first post but long time reader. I was backflushing my cooling system yesterday and my xj swallowed a bit of water down the intake. The engine stumbled for a second but never shut off and seems to be running normal today. Is there anything I should be concerned about or do? Thanks in advance

if it's running fine and never died, i wouldnt worry about it.....

you steam cleaned your pistons and exhaust ports though, which isnt a bad thing

You should be alright if it's running fine.

Just to be safe, I would do a compression test on there.
