Should I warm the engine every time I try to work on the remaining GPs?

With the injectors out its possible to spin the engine over on the starter, This will remove nearly all the fluid that has been put in there--What doesnt come out the injector hole will exit via the exhaust-valve........
Ally expands more than steel, so it stands to reason the plugs should be easier to remove with a warm engine...
