The goo inside of the ignition is some kind of dielectric material to protect the ignition module, heat from the engine make its gooey or soft and sticky, when it cool down its should hard, it also depends if its the original module in there. I bought a new one for my car and the new one seen not a bad. But if you see lots of bubbles inside the goo then you might have a problem with you ignition modulel, but then again your car will be running like crap or won't even run with a bad module.
