changed my plugs today. first of all, what a pain lol (the drives side back set). had 2 boots rip off inside the tube. Quite a few were barely more than hand tight, one plug WAS hand tight. Most looked fine. 6 on the drivers side did not. They had a orange/rust tint on the porcelain area by the electrode. Posting pictures... please let me know what you think it is.
Also... the crankcase vent tube has a NASTY amount of oil/gunk buildup (the air filter had a lot of gunk in it from what Im assuming is the crankcase vent as well, which went into the intake/tb etc). . Also changed the pcv, which was nasty and old. The TB was very dirty, VERY VERY dirty on the inside (i had cleaned the outside before quickly). Any idea what that is or is from? Should I change the crankcase breather to a filter instead so Im not sucking up all that gunk/crap or whatever it is?
I did NOT clean inside the manifold, didnt want to go that indepth or get stuff inside the engine.
need to find a host to post the pictures*
