Post Plastic straw in motor
4500 black death. Foggin oil plastic straw came off and was sucked through carb and intake. I turned engine off immediately. Pulled spark plug and was able to fish out an inch long piece through the plug hole but the rest of the straw is no where to be seen. The piece i removed was mangled and partially melted.

Should I fire up the motor and let remaining portion of the straw be chewed up and burned away or tear down and remove? Why?

Thanks in advance!

It's all done already. Just cook it. It's not gonna leave any residue behind once that motor starts going again, and that's assuming theres any left to begin with.
