so the other day i pulled the plugs out of my 1997 celica's 5s-fe and looked at them and found some oil on the one in cylinder 2
im wondering what possible causes there are for oil to be in only cylinder 2 and 4 .. -------------------- |

Was the oil in the cylinders, or in the spark plug tubes? If it's in the spark plug tubes then you just need to replace your valve cover gasket. If you're accumulating oil inside the cylinders in heavy amounts, well you have bigger issues.
