Default b16 ef bad main relay?

ok so im sure its bad but just really wanna know if anyone knows what caused it

with this relay the car wants to turn on with starting fluid and once in a while itll start for a second then die

so today i opened up main relay and bam looks all nasty with some blue liquid in it

could this be my problem??

also anyone know what caused this so it wont happen again?

I'd search the leaks thread if I were you, I've had to a few times lol. Mine is now leaking right above the main relay, maybe yours is too (to a lesser extent) how often do you get in and feel the floorboard to see if it's damp after a rain? Yeah, me either, but the big *** storms we had a few days ago sent it pouring in obviously. But def check for a leak so you don't have to buy another one soon!
