I did not get any reply, the first time I posted this but I will try again. <br /><br />Hi, I was noticing that my spark plugs were wet one day returning from fishing. Well, the next time I went out, the motor did not want to start once we got out to the first fishing spot. Well , I got back in and noticed the spark plugs were wet, So I dried them up and then I was able to start and flush the motor. After I had the mechanic replace the head gasket and he stated that all else looked fine based on the age of the motor. (1987) The compression check was about 95 psi. The water pump seems to be working fine. Now I am still having the problem with the wet sparkplugs, Where else can this water be coming from. Can anyone help.

On an engine that is stopped by turning off the ignition, wet spark plugs are normal, but not wet with water.<br /><br />There may be water in the fuel.
