been hihgly getting unmotivated here! things are going slow and problem after problem... Fuel leak on the primary rail is not a good sign, but hopefully some thicker orings will do the job!
Spark plugs were pulled out and they are rusty! which can not be good! Hoping its not a coolant seal. but looking very slim as to why else the plugs would be rusted! ANY THOUGHTS ON WHY THEY WOULD BE RUSTED! Would they rust just from sitting in the block with no oil too long,

The LIM has been off the whole time and was covered with a towel with a wrench on it... so yes air can get in...
and the turbo and manifold was off for about a month with the exhaust ports open... and then with the manifold on with no turbo for a while! Mobeoner was at the garage when he pulled the plugs and he put some oil into it and turned the rotors both way to lube it up a little!
You say to clean it out? how should I do that? any recommendations!
When I drained the oil like 3 months ago there was nothing else in there... but then again hard to see when your on the ground draining oil into a large bucket with other **** in it! =(
