HELP! oil in sparkplug chamber :[

thechori · 03-13-2007, 06:47 PM

alright well i own a 1989 N/A 5-peed, i was going to change out the spark plugs and wires. i took off the throttlebody, took out the wire on plug #4(iirc) and saw a good inch of oil in the chamber.. i cleaned it out, but i guess i didn't get all of it out b/c when i took out the plug, the oil spilled a little, and i think i saw some in where the spark is made........ is that bad? i'm pretty sure i don't know what to do, haha :[

any suggestions as to what i should do? what could've caused this to happen?

go to local parts store, buy new valve cover gaskets and replace the screws with 10mm bolts.. helps keep dem covers down tight
