I have two , the other has excess sap and the fruit looked different
But doesnt look like the one pictured above. Should i remove that one too ?
Its only 12 feet from the infected one . Thanks

Doesn't sound like #2 is fireblight. Doesn't mean plum is a good tree choice.... what does the excess sap look like (pictures?)

Gummosis is VERY common with Plum around here. Can be caused by insects (such as peach tree borer), disease (cytospora), injury, other fungal cankers, etc...

Going to research this now and thank you very much

Try Pseudomonas blight as well as brown rot (Monolinia I believe). Not to be confused with brown rot types of fungal decay, it has a bad common name.
