Question WTF!!! 3rd Plug on Pass. Side

I have heard a lot of members say they have had problems with this plug coming loose. But, does any one else have problems with water getting down below the coil pack.

When I check my plugs today, I found significant water evidence on the coil pack and plug. The plug itself has a lot of rust on it. I would have replaced it today if I had one.

This was the only plug I removed and after doing so, I had a severe miss. This is not the first time I think this plug has caused a miss. I believe it is related to the water issue as the miss went a way after driving about 45 minutes.

Just wondering if it is just my L!

Common problem not limited to your vehicle...

Well from what I understand, it coud be from the AC line from condensation, iceing the S/C down to cool it off for the next race or if you wash the engine bay and did not get all the water dryed off the motor. These are the most common thing that cause this. I hope this helps you a little more.
