I have a rough idle problem and thought i'd change the spark plugs, i noticed the rightmost sparkplug's thread was covered in oil and the others werent. Only the thread had oil on it. Could this be a leak thats interrupting the spark to that last cylinder? Is there a seal or something I can replace? Any help appreciated, thanks.

Yep, my MR2 did the same thing. Didn't run rough though. Unless the electrode on the spark plug's covered in oil, that won't cause rough idling. Check your plugs/leads
