ZC problems!!! HELP!!!

So me and Phact were washing off his ZC motor using the instructions at www.1fastrex.com and after it dried and we started it and it sounded like a MOTORCYCLE all stuttering and shit. So we pulled the plug wires out and checked the plugs and 3 of them were covered in oil. So we wiped off the oil and put those back in, then we took off the distributor cap and it was fine inside, so we put it all back together and then it ran FINE! What the FUCK!? Ideas? The ZC did this when he put it in, and they changed out the spark plugs and it fixed it.

The oil on the plugs worries me.

HELP!

oil on the plugs can be blown piston rings or blown head gasket.

There are spark plug seals that keep oil from flooding into the spark plug cylinders through the valve chamber. They are on the bottom of the valve cover. Replace those. '89 Integra ones fit, do the valve cover gasket also while your at it.
