Municipal water supply typically has phosphates added to prevent corrosion in the mains. Sometimes it will flush off the inside of the pipes. I have seen chunks that came loose when mains were replaced that were almost the size of our poverty caps. Generally, if it is just an occasional blip of black stuff, you have no worries and certainly do not need to call a plumber. Maybe the city is flushing hydrants in the area. Check with your municipal water supply if it gets worse.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
