No. I've always heard that getting water in your engine is a sad thing.

if you pull the dipstick out of the oil and it has a white milky substance on it you DO have water and/or antifreeze in your engine. DO NOT RUN THE ENGINE. you may have a blown head gasket which can be fixed for a few hundred or worse a cracked head or engine block.however if water was put in the engine oil,(by mistake or a prank) drain the oil,change the filter,add all but 1 quart of new oil into the motor w/1 quart of diesel fuel...yes diesel fuel.run the engine @ idle NO FASTER for about 10 minutes..drain the oil,remove and replace the filter,refill w/fresh oil.that should allieviate the problem..
