Will a little oil hurt things?
I changed my plugs today and noticed a few plugs had some oil on them. Some had none.
The car is a 97 and the boots were still soft and had no cracks.
Now the miss I had is much worse. I'm thinking that maybe the boots are bad even though they don't look it.
Two of them had been replaced and the rest looked factory. The two new ones had new coils on them and those were the only cylinders that they "popped" out of. The rest slid right out.
If I replaced the other 6 will the oil just kill them? The valve covers aren;t leaking out side the engine so I hate to change them if not really needed.
Thanks
