Oil on my sparkplugs

Post by matias » Sun Sep 21, 2008 11:22 am

I have just fitted new Denso sparkplugs, but there was some littel oil on the old one.. The engine dosent smok blue or use ANY oil.. Is that something I should have bad dreams about :shock:

I had big probs with Denso Iridium.

One of mine broke up inside the cylinder and passed through the turbo. Same thing happened to my jetski. I am not saying this will happen but if anything goes wrong, get it seen to immediately.

Funnily enough i had the same problem in the GTO with iridium plugs, cant remember the make, will double check that.
Luckily i am v cautious with the servicing on that car (service every 3000 miles) and caught it just on time.
