Default red dust on spark plugs...

i traded my car for a del sol with high c:r sohc. When i first traded it ran fine. Now im back in my state which is 2000 feet higher above sea level than where there this car was tuned. Now it runs funny, light throttle cuts and is choppy like the timing is off or its missing. So i went to check my spark plugs and there is like red dust type stuff on the ends of all the plugs. kind of like rust color. i sprayed with starting fluid and it ran off. I havnt driven my car yet to see if it changed but where would this red ---- come from?
