    Pick the colour?

    I have had trouble starting the beast for the past few days, with it having trouble turning over. After starting, it has misfired for 30 seconds until it ran fine. This went on for a few days, and today it wouldnt turn! It hasnt been overheating, has been behaving on road, no change in fuel economy, all the usual.Eventually i got it started and drove home. I let it settle and had a look about.

    Pulling the plugs, Cyl 1 is chock full of <WHAT>.

    Cheers!

    Is it a K series? If it is it could be sludge, the result of the coolant and oil mixing together.
