I'm taking my car in tomorrow to have it checked. It's a 1997 LHS - I did check my spark plugs and the spark plug port was full of oil. I had the gasket repleced before and I guess need it done again. I'll let you know what my mechanic finds out.

Had that same problem on my 94 LHS, turned out to be the Fuel Injector O-Rings needed replaced, It's kind of hard to see the leakage as the Intake Plenum covers up the Injectors a bit but that was what needed to be done on mine. If you replace the O-Rings yourself, BE VERY CAREFUL! The the injectors are mounted in Fuel Rail made of a plastic type material and can be broken or cracked fairly easily. Also the Injectors are a bear to remove because the O-Rings will litterally glue themselves to the Fuel Rail. If your not mechanically inclined then I would highly recommend having the Dealer replace them.
