In about 2 of my four hole I got alot of oil in them, I looked at my exploded engine view in my Haynes, and it looks like the only place it could come from is from the grommets on the top of the holes (that holds the cover).
But it doesnt seem like that much oil could come from there...

Is it possible it comes from inside the tubes itself? I supposed those spark plug tubes are screwed in the head eh? Anyone fixed this problems?

they go for like 4 bux a piece at the dealership. its those lil grommets underneath those huge nuts that hold down the valve cover.

The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed?
