G'day All!

Tonight I blew out a welsh plug. Not a big deal in itself but what I would like to know is what can cause a welsh plug to blow out as opposed to leaking/coroding away? The block is only coming up to 3 yrs old and the coolant has been changed a few times in that period anyway.

Does high revs have something to do with it?

Thanks
