Water in the sparkholes
when my B16A came over on the boat from japan, it had water in the spark plug holes.
It was sitting there long enough to do damage. One of the spark plugs wouldn't come out, and it eventually just broke off the threaded part from the rest of the plug.

Ouch... what did you have to do to save the head? Or was it screwed?
should have soaked it in wd-40 or some other penitrating oil. bought a zc out of a junk yard that sat out in the open for a year and a half. soaked them and they came right out

I had that happen after I washed my sr20. I used some napkins and a stick to push it down and soak it up. It missfired like a SOB under load.
I also broke a spark plug out of a head before too. I soaked it in everything for a whole day. It still broke.
We took the head to a machine shop and they got the threaded part out with an Ez-Out for only 10 bux. They chased the threads for us too.
