How are you tightening your plugs? Are your plugs gapped to stock spec? I've seen (and recently experience) plugs get wet from water coming in through aftermarket wires are messing up the plug/wire, that's why I was curious.

From what you said, the 2nd cylinder plug (72) was the worst. Did you say you replaced it? What brand of plugs are these again?
Tightening my plugs by hand. Im using bosh platiums now, which whatever pregap they came with. Said I didnt have too....

Interesting enough... number 2 according to your diagram is the one whom the most black shiz on it. Also, it appeared to give way under tightening. However I used a torque wrench to tighten to spec...

The wires are APC 9mm wires. The dealership had stock at 69 bucks. I wanted ACCEL and no one had them. Pepboys only had stock replacement for 40 bucks, which I tried, but they broke under testing. Returned them for the APC brand 9mm blue wires. Now there THICK and they actually look like good quality from the outside. The input shaft is ceramic, the wires are tight looking in appearence. No loose cover that could possiable get water condissation. There wrapped in tight blue cover.

Im thinking its my valve adjustment. Why else other than dirty fuel injectors?
