Re: Car dies out

I figured that it was oil from me unscrewing the spark plug it just seems like its around the threads not the spark of the plug. Theres no codes of showing misfires at all. Only codes that show up are o2 sensors lean bank 1 I think thats what I recall as far as the rest of the code I dont know. But I do remember that he said bank 1 lean. Well its not 3-5 miles now its as soon as you start the car it will run like a kitten for 10 seconds then shake, stumble and off it goes. Then you can start it right back up but this time it doesnt take 10-15 seconds it takes 3-5 seconds now then it idles rough shakes and off it goes again. I have took the intake manifold off cleaned it out. throttle body cleaned it. checked the vacuum lines and none seem to be hurt (cracked broken or even collapsed together).... I thought of letting a rag sit inside that #3 and soak up what oil is in there and then get new plugs trying that and seeing if that will help any. I have ordered new ignition coils but doesnt seem to be the problem because they look good and have no oil around the penciled boot. That was a doubt for me, cause of there being no oil around the boot showing no signs of leaking oil down to the spark plugs. Also is there anyway that you can send me pictures of this PCV you were talking about on another thread please.
