Second, what is all the rust on the exposed part of the plugs? Was it stored in a very humid area?
Stored in E. Texas. Def. a lot of humidity! Since getting it back to the Austin area, oil is changed, coolant changed. Plugs that came out were gapped at .035. New plugs gapped at .044.

She still hesitates at highway speeds. I'm thinking maybe the timing is off?
