Bamainkdgrl Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 2011 Fusion SE 2.5l Doing a tune up and find this mess. I’ve asked around and am told it’s corrosion from the two metals. Does that sound right? Whatever it is is very soft, can see where I poked it with a small flathead. Two other plugs had oil in the well, one just a little bit, one had a good bit. And one plug is perfectly fine. But I am concerned about the weird stuff. Sealant? Help! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WKelley Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Looks like corrosion, clean it out best you can before removing it, should be OK. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea what would cause it? Aside from the oil in the other two plugs everything looked fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WKelley Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Some water likely made it's way in there somehow, it should be easy enough to clean out. May as well do the valve cover gaskets if those 2 tubes have oil in them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
