There is alot of bs being said on this thread. Impellers get damaged from heat. It doesnt take long for it to heat up but its not going to get to a damaging temperature instantly. A one/two second rotation wont hurt it. Also it take a couple rotations of the impeller to actually pump water up into the pump. The pump works like a vacume sucking water into the pump. there isnt necessarily water in the pump when you first start it up. it take a couple rotations to suck the water up from the lower leg. It doesnt take long to do a couple rotations.

However, IMO I dont believe spinning the impeller will do anything in terms of getting moisture out, especially not in the upper reaches of the motor. it might clear some out but nothing of significance that wouldnt have air dried over the next day or on the highway. the pumps are designed to drain themselves
