i just changed my spark plugs, and some spark plugs, were drenched in oil, while others had a slight bit of oil.. why is there oil in my pistons?

how can i fix this?...

 

Valve cover gaskets

 

i replace this? how much is this 'valve cover gasket'


is this a valve cover gasket?

thats what i find, when i look for valve cover gasket


i thought the valve cover gasket was this.




i have an F22A1

 

that first pic is a headgasket. second is a valve cover. i bought mine for 20$ from checker auto parts.

you need to purchase a valve cover gasket from honda or local auto parts store. it is 4 small circular rubber seals which go on the 4 spark plug holes on the bottom of your valve cover, and one large seal which fits into the groove on the bottom of your valve cover. good luck, its an easy fix.

 

so it has nothing to do with the piston rings?

oil getting inside to the plugs is why?

 

oil from the head is gettin into the spark plugs, not oil from the block.

 

He didnt say whether there was oil on the TOP of the plug or on the bottom of the plug...


if its on the top, then replace valve cover gasket. If there is oil on the bottom, you need a ring job.


Im stoned as hell, and I still figured that out quicker than averyone

 

bones, yea i think it might be the rings, beacuse the bottom of every sparkplug was drenched with oil, and on only 1 plug, the plug dripped oil, so i dont know... what do u say?

how much would a ring job, cost?

and whats the correct term? i dont wanna go to a place and say i want a ring job :P

 

umm do the valve cover gasket 1st...should be that....cost you about 1 grand less than replacing the rings.....

 

if you pull off the spark plug wires off the spark plugs and you got oil, it is the Valve Cover O-ring Seals that eed to be replaced.

They are about 2-4 dollars a piece, thats why alot of people don't change them
