one grommet can certainly go out before the other ones, it happened in my civic ex, too. it ran much better after the fix. the kit comes with the valve cover gasket and all 4 grommets, just replace everything, you have it anyway. very important to tq it down to spec though, over or under tq can result in leaky seal.

ok i got new plugs and the problem completly stopped not 4 new ones i just replaced the bad one with the same type... it stopped... so if it gets filed out again what are some possible things that could be doing it? My brother theory is... i washed my engine when this started hapening and cylinder 1 had water in it just the plug part.. so we took out the plug and all the water goes in the engine... his theory is that all the water made it file out the next day.. so well see now that all the water should be gone if not :-/
