Thats what I said....This kid was telling me that his dads motor had water on a spark plug and their engine builder said that there must have been moisture in their gas can and when they ran the motor,got on the plugs.

I told him I thought a crack or broken head gasket.

It can, depending on where it was stored, & i will say, I lived in Fla. & the south for many yrs., moisture will get into EVERYTHING!! No matter how well you "think" its sealed & thats a fact
