I am the only one to my knowledge who has popped my hood for the past two years. I don't often make mistakes without immediately catching myself. The fluid is the tanner variety and the level is good. And yes, there was fluid on every spark plug. As of now the car is running right yet with a "service engine" light on. My mama's mechanic solved her "service engine" light with a locking gas cap. I may give that route a try.

Also, a new development. I suspected the PCV valve and so went to Autozone to pick up a new one. When I was removing the old one, it seems the dark thing was sheared off, so I suppose causing a vacuum leak. The male end was broken off inside the connector and I couldn't remove it all. Somehow I worked the new one in, but suspected a leak still, so I gave it a few wraps of duct tape. Yes, the "engine" light was still on.
