What would cause that? A leaky cam cover gasket or something of that nature? This would explain why I lose oil, I know the Shortstar loses some oil to begin with, but when I have oil seeping out there, that could have something to do with it.
That one plug also seemed fouled from oil.
Input?

I had that happen when I changed plugs in my car too, however mine plugs in the front three had some. I had been thinking of tightening them down, just didn't know if I should risk it, if it is a o ring seal it migh work.
