Default Crispy Spark Plugs, why?
Just pulled the "week old" spark plugs. What would cause this to happen?

Pulled them out of a 1998 honda civic ex with a d16y8. These plugs were supposedly a week old but they look like this. what would cause the crispy bottoms like that?

Who told you they were a week old? Did you buy them new?

Holy ****. Those are definitely not a week old. Maybe a year, at MINIMUM. The corrosion on the steel part of the plug gives it away.
