10558, oil in spark plug holes... Posted by phatGS, Dec-20-01 08:46 AM
There's oil in my spark plug holes, and it's running out causing smoke.....it's only in the passenger side plug and driver side plug....not in the two middle ones...What's the problem?

My brother just replaced it about a month ago for me....didn't do the spark plug gaskets because no parts stores around here had any idea what they were (including NAPA) or where to order them apparently. Where can I get them at?

do you have any dogde or chrysler dealer in your area. They should have it also.

Go to any dodge or mitsu dealership. The spark plug grommets are like $5 a piece. So you are looking at $20 for the set. That's why you are leaking and getting smoke.

ok, do you think since the valve cover gasket was replaced so recently (less than 100 miles easy) that it would be fine to just leave on there without having to get a new one of that too? What's the web address for corbin's walkthrough again? Thanks.

The valve cover gasket should still be fine. All you need to do is remove plug wires, coil (two 10mm bolts is holding it down i believe) then remove the 8 8mm bolts holding the valve cover and your done.
