Ive been doing this for awhile now on another outboard. I figure there wont be a problem with compressing fluid. Am i bending the rods ?

why good question i wanted to seafoam this new used boat i purchased. Carbs are hard to reach. Ive read water does not compress and ruins motors curious if squirting deep creep into the plug holes is bad. Ive been doing this on another outboard my force which fouls up.
