Hi, this problem is usually caused by worn valve guide seals.

SOURCE: oil change procedure on a 2005 Hyundai elantra

it is very easy to change the oil put the car on ramps secure the back end look for the drain plug underneath the engine make sure you have the right size wrench and when you remove the plug also check the gasket on the plug to make sure it is not cracked you will also need an oil filter wrench and my other suggestion to you is to go to autozone to see if they have a Haynes repair manual for your car and if they don't see if they can order you one in the mean time they can also print you off a diagram of how to change the oil in you car safely

SOURCE: ON 2002 ALTIMA 2.5 I FOUND OIL

I would try snugging down all the valve cover bolts before replacing anything. A valve cover gasket kit should have the grommets and gaskets necessary to repair this if you find no loose bolts.

1997 HYUNDAI ELANTRA OIL AT NO 1 SPARK PLUG AND AT THE BREATHER PIPI ON THE AIRFILTER WHAT CAN BE THE MATTER

Run a compression test or cylinder leak down test on the engine. You have an oil control ring or a valve seal that is failing.

I own a 2002 Kia Rio RXV and my husband decided to change my spark plugs. When he pulled them out of the engine, they were all covered in oil. What would cause this and is it worth fixing?

You have a 4 cylinder and there are seals in the cover around the spark plug holes. You can replace these with a rocker arm cover gasket set. Costs about $25.00. The oil does not hurt the sparkplug, but over time it will affect the plug wires/ boots and cause a misfire. these are not hard to replace. Your call.

1. Worn or broken rings on that cylinder
2. Valve guides or seals worn on that cylinder

4. Yes it will make your car run bad

Changed the spark plugs and the old ones were covered in oil

i'm guessing that your car is a 4-cylinder. this is common for inline 4-cylinder engines. since the spark plug holes usually go through the valve cover, the valve cover gasket will leak and collect in the spark plug holes. to fix this you will have to replace the valve cover gasket.

So this is my problem....i own a 2004 crown victoria unmarked police unit. it all started when the check engine light came on. i got the code, it said something about the spark plugs. i changed all 8 with...

possible bad rings, i would put some motor tune-up in oil will clean carbon off rings, its made by company called seaform and is called motor tune-up, put hole can in oil and drive for about 30 days ,its good stuff can also use in fuel to clean injectors, could also have worn out valve stem seals causing oil to leak pass valves into cyl

Wet Plugs

If the oil was still wet it probably wasn't coming from inside the combustion chamber. Oil in the combustion chamber would show up on the plugs as white ash (usually). It has been my experience with those toyota motors that the oil comes from deteriorating o-rings that seal the valve cover to the spark plug tubes. They're not very difficult to replace. Remove the valve cover (you'll need a VC gasket) and there are 4 big holes in it that fit over the spark plug tubes, which you should now see sticking up out of the head. Replace the o-rings around them and you should have no more oilly plugs. I don't think this really affects the performance, but I can see where it would cause plug wires to fail prematurely.

Water leaking from spark plugh

Hello;
Water / coolant coming from a spark plug hole is not good. However since you have a rotary engine, the probale cause is an o-ring that has gone bad. The older rotary engines were notorious for the o-rings going out. The o-rings seal the combustion, oil and coolant passages. The engine will need to be resealed. Hope this helps.
Thanks;
