i removed my heads tonight and saw that a few of the pistons were very gummy and black, what is this from? lately i've been having coolant problems and the plugs were getting a little wet, could is it just carbon buildup from the plugs getting ruined and not firing? this is really disturbing me and i wanna make sure it will be ok before i put it back together, thanks
