Default spark plug bubbles.....

Hey everyone,

I Just bought a 1996 integra ls. And was washing some built up oil of th emotor and then off the sma cover. a little bit of water built up in the middle were the plugs are.

So when i fired her up to dry the motor up i seen small bubbles forming around two of the plugs....

if your counting from the driver side to the passenger it was one and three..

is this maybe from vibration or could my cam cover be leaking or my spark plugs be strippe di tightened them donw snugg but not crazy..

And theres no water or oil down in any of the plug holes...

Please any help woud be apreciated.

The valve cover spark plug seals could be bad on that cylinder. I'd replace them, but if you don't see any oil in that spark plug hole then it could just be the water heating up and causing the bubbles. The presence of oil will be the tell tale sign.
