What causes a spark plug to melt?

A melted electrode on your spark plugs means that they’ve been running too hot for too long and could burn a hole through the top of a piston. A heavier, oily black deposit means that oil is being sucked down into the combustion chamber, likely via worn valve guides, guide seals or piston rings or a cracked piston.
