I recently went to change the spark plugs and wires on my B16, and when i pulled the wire out, oil flung EVERYWHERES. I freaked out, because not too long ago i replaced my valve cover and I didn't remember oil being on the plug of the wire!!! So i shoved it back onto the spark plug in hopes that my engine would still start (didnt want oil inside of the plug and on top of the spark plug) And it started. I'm still freaked out, I dont think that oil is supposed to be there. I thought it was maybe because my engine was warm so, I came back the next mornming and pulled out a different boot and THE SAME THING. WHAT GIVES? I haven't had the change to pull the spark plug itself out, but it looks like it's swimming in oil down there. Someone just mentioned that there are seals inside the valve cover that I might not have replaced? I am going to look at my old valve cover now to see if they are in there. Please let me know what's up, I'm freaked out, and i have NGK wires and Bosch Platinum +4 plugs to put in!!!
