im taking a road trip to cali from maryland, and my car decided to shut down in iowa. it just started to lose power when we were on the highway going about 80. i pulled the spark plugs, and the spark plug from cylinder 2 seemed to have melted from the end of the threads to the electrode. the plug from cylinder 1 looked like the piston hit the electrode because the tip was a little bit bent. i cant get any pics right now, but do you guys have any idea on what could have caused this? i had the car towed to a repair shop here in iowa, and the mechanic here has a camera scope that he can send down into the cylinder to see if the block/head is still salvageable.

 

by the way, my car is a 90 crx si with a d16z6 swap converted to obd1. everything is pretty stock internally, only mods is a close-ratio tranny and bolt ons.

 

Holy **** man......

It sounds like you leaned out bad and fried the plugs......from it getting WAY to hot in there......
