Hi all again,
                    I also noticed one of the plugs was weeping and when i 
took it out there was a score mark where the weep is. I have read JK's 
recollection of Magic Powder (Agricultural ?)  is there anything I can use to 
render this score mark so that it does not weep again. My father once put a 
piece of steel wire into the groove and very carefully hammered it flush 
before inserting plug. It apparently lasted years.
Epoxy Resin, Metal paste ? Any thoughts will be welcome


Happy Spitting..................John  (In the UK)
