I was thinking about taking out my plugs tomorrow but I was wondering, when I put them back in, do I need to torque them in?

It is not supposed to have oil. Either you spilled oil into it accidentally while changing oil or you would need to change the gasket(valve cover gasket)

Would there be a reason why I can't get the spark plugs out? Thanks man. -------------------- 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STi 1974 Datsun 260Z 1997 Subaru Legacy L Wagon Kind of missin' my Celica GT!
