i think i found it out spark plug is all jacked up, im going throw new pugs in her as well, even though even plugs are only 7,000 miles old, but plug looks defective now.

kind of looks like some of that plug wire grease

My assumption is corrosion, I get it all the time and believe its from water getting in there.

What kind of plug is that? I wouldnt use any other plug other than the motorcraft fine point platinum. Definately dont use copper on a factory/un-modded engine. They wont last as long and the fuel economy will drop. I have heard the E3's are ok too. And it looks like the threads on the plug have oil on them.
