True, it takes money, but don’t tell me you had it fixed before & it’s back.. but you don’t want be bothered with the previous mechanic… so you want me to fix it. “Red flag”
A ghetto fix I just thought of is fill the tube with “stop leak” overnight, that junk swells the seals and is used by shady folks right before they sell a car. It actually works to good and harms other properly working seals. In this case chemically swelling one seal might be ok, vs a valve cover R&R. Food for thought.
Nah bro, I had to get my alternator replaced 3 times before they finally fkn told me that there was an oil leak causing it to fail smh. Sometimes shops just suck.
Spark plug tube seal. God. Anyone ever miss working on an old school motor? Ive hardly ever worked on a modern car, it's daunting. Idk how you guys do it. Im not a mechanic, but mad respect.
Yup. I just did the valve cover seal on my wifes car. It was a lot of work and the amount of shit I had to disconnect and move was ridiculous. I'm amazed I got it back together and had no extra parts. All I can say is STAY ORGANIZED
True but look at it this way. This thing went 172k miles before it needed valve cover gaskets and it’s probably still on the original spark plugs too. That would never have happened on old school cars.
Thank god for honest mechanics like yourself. So many would just knowingly put it back together knowing they can charge for another job in a couple weeks when the code comes back. Keep doing Gods work!
Especially if they did not pull the plug they just recommend a tune up and coil based on a misfire code. I have seen that many times unfortunately. People really don't put a lot of thought into why things are happening
Huh? Sonyou think if they make the repair right then that the mechanic is doing it for nothing? That doesnt make any sense. I dont know a mechanic that would just ignore that. They would bring it up because it means more work and therefore more money. I do however know a lot of people who would decline the repair when the mechanic tells them about the problem.
My friend it is so refreshing to listen to a mechanic like you who is honest and does his best to get the job done right for the customer for the least cost. God bless you
had this issue with my ole honda v6, what I discovered once disassembled was that when i put the valve covers on prior i’d caught the lip of all the seals & torn it up pushing the vc into place. maaaann i felt slow but i did the job again the right way 😂 lesson learned
The first time I ever work on a car alone I was fixing a oil leak in the cylinder chamber on a v6 oh van not a beginner job one but but got it done definitely saved like 800 dollars doing it myself
I had a 2000 dodge neon that had oil in 3 out of the 4 spark plug tubes. I drove it like that for years without replacing the seals and never had a problem!!
I had a 2002 Kia Rio with 240k miles on it. The best low maintence Manuel shift reliable car I ever had. But I would go back and forth from Seattle Washington and the Tri cities in the freezing icy winters and hot summers. I always had oil in my spark plug boot but I didn't know what it was til now. All I had to do is replace the valve cover gasket. That car now has over 300k miles on it with another owner that I gave the car to for free thinking the car wasn't worth much longer.
I did this to a Cadillac I bought, no start, replace, plugs, boot's, and All coil packs, started right up,4 year's still can't hear it run,. Maintain your vehicle's and preventive maintenance and you will save a lot of money. We don't have 1970 Impala's, where you just drove it, no maintenance, added oil here and there and still ran when you sold it or junked it. Those days are long gone. Things are complicated and expensive, take care of her and she will take care of you.
My dad's lady drives a PT with this and multiple other minor issues. She never wants to do (pay for) need repairs. "Cousin Pookie" always tells her about "All you need to do is" type repairs
This is exactly why I don’t give advice to people on their cars lmao. People hear I’m handy in an engine bay and think I’m gonna diagnose issues for em… nope. Take that shit to a shop, you aren’t blaming me when your ride is busted.
Had saab with this issue, never bothered to fix it for the few years i had it. Never had problems, just extracted the oil before changing the plug. If anything it probably helps preserve the boot of the coil pack lmao. Dry rot causes misfires b4 the actual coil stops working. Im so cheap i slap a thick layer of red silicone around the entire boot to keep it from arcing. Its not what i consider right, but it worked until i got a different car!
Not on older vehicles you just go right to it there's nothing else to move out of the way maybe a breather hose but nothing else i always check the new plugs gap before putting any in and make sure they're all gapped to the same setting

When you change plugs, change the seals and valve cover gaskets. You're already half-way there, so just do it and get it done. And replace with OEM. Yes, after market is cheaper, but the fit is not always perfect. Do it once, do it right.
Go ahead and pull that plug and have all that oil drain into the cylinder. Then put it back together and see how long it takes for them to come back and say you messed up their car.
Just did my spark plugs yay ! The ones I took out I guess had some stickiness to the threads . I’m guessing oil or just carbon ? Hope it’s not oil . 11 LE 2.5 L with 175 k miles . Unfortunately the tabs fell off the coil connections . And valve cover looked very dirty with caked on oil . I cleaned it off . The oil stains could’ve been from oil filling and they spilled it I guess . I’ve been checking oil level and it don’t seem to be going down
Nice observation man! Yeah, when I saw it, some didn’t look right. All the rest of the coils are old and decrepit in this one kind a looks like it’s already been replaced.
When I wrote at full service shops, if the technician diagnosed a valve cover gasket leak, I always suggested new tube seals with speak plugs as a precaution.
I'm not sure tube seals are going to fix that. Isn't that oil from the tube where it screws into the head? I use to have that happen to me on couple of 3.5's from the 90's. On those, I had to unscrew the tube, and install a new one with Loctite sealer on the threads. I probably could have just resealed the old one with fresh Loctite, but I never tried it.
@pugchench4443 depends. Are you talking about the upper (silicone) seals, or the lower tube sealing where it screws into the head. For the former, they are probably purchased in sets(per v. cover), so you paid for 'em might as well use (all of)them. For the latter situation, I'd only reseal the offending tube bottom, and not try to fix what ain't broken.
@@budlanctot3060 so I drive a 2000 toyota camry 5sfe engine. I just know oil is leaking onto the spark plug on cylider 4 (the far right one) very little not severe as the one on the video. Tighted valve cover nuts to see if it helps to prevent a CEL that could happen sooner or later.
If it’s an older cjdr Or atleast has higher mileage I always replace the tube seals when I’m in there. Well when I have the cover off not just for plugs typically I’ve never seen one that oily.
Random walk ups bothering you while working and asking for quotes like you know every figure for every vehicle. Stupid questions, random bullshit , etc.
This just happened to our 02 dodge neon, i left the spark plugs in, then hammered the tubes back down with a rubber mallet, vacumed out the oil with a vacume that i taped a little rubber hose to, then kept cleaning it with brake clean and vacuming the junk out. Changed the plug wires and 6 weeks, so far so good. I ended up getting into this thing becuse of a misfire under load, turns out the misfire had nothing to do with 3 of the plugs submerged in oil, it ended up being 1 of the plug wires was totally rusted on the coil plug side (neons have a single coil located up on the valve cover). Just thought id share my experience with a similar situation, id never seen those tubes pop out on a vehicle before. Turns out neons are notorious for it.
I have to do mine again, mine is leaking in the same spot. I didn't know they made a tool for the seals until a month after I did them. I tapped them in a with a screwdriver and sure I didn't seat it right
I’ve got a 2009 PT cruiser that’s is got the same problem on the same #2 plug. But I can’t find any one to fix it. I had a mechanic change my valve cover gasket and plugs and he never mentioned it.
I have 2011 EQ with 44,548 miles It's like new. I put new vvt noids in it about a month ago. Put new struts and sway bar links Still nosey in the front
Just did the spark plugs on my bmw only cuz i needed a valve cover gasket. lucky for me my valve cover was only leaking around the exhaust but i did replace the coil boots anyway just for good measure.
Is it the same process as a 2007 Ford crown Victoria LX my number 3 spark plug tube is getting oil in it it's not sending any codes yet but I have noticed that it's running a little rougher but I would like to change all of them
I don't really mess with those all the cam motors and im not sayings oil wont cause a coil to fail but in my mind it should be fine just so long as its making contact with the plug the oil which i would assume is mostly dielectric it shouldn't matter
I dont really care if it "should be fine" We up sell addition work thats needed. Thats how shops work. She was informed and approve repairs here: ruclips.net/video/tUNhaB9H5Wc/видео.html
The oil is full of carbon. Carbon is used as the conductor in electric motors. The coils are putting out 30,000 volts. It is enough to overcome any resistance in the oil. The plug gap and engine compression will create a higher resistance and the electrons will find the path of least resistance.

@@oldschooldude8370 those oil cooler housing are so easily broken by your jiffy lube dude or the guy who can do the oil change cheaper. I always recommend the upgraded dorman version
Had a compression test done on my 2006 4.6 v8 f150. It was low on compression in two cylinders. What could this mean? I was told I would need a new engine… but could it be a small repair, and that the repair requires taking out the whole engine, which is why they would charge for a new engine instead of replacing say the head gasket or something else?? Like idk maybe some sort of leak??? I also noticed the oil pan gasket at the bottom of the engine is leaking…. And it’s been leaking for a while before my truck started to lose power. Just curious what you guys think the possibilities might be..
Why is it so floppy ? For people who say "he probably knew and decided not to repair it.", It doesn't matter, it's the mechanic's responsibility to inform him of the issue and approximative cost of repair, it is up to the client whether to go through with the repair or not, not everyone has a money tree in his backyard and not everyone has a backyard. Be a bit realistic folks.
what about that oil filter housing did you check that, I have replaced about 20 of those things common problem. you would think after a couple years of redesign would be nice but hey it makes me money
Who in the world designs an engine where you have to take the whole intake off just to access the spark plugs? Also why they don't implement some sort of a vertical plate along the gasket so the oil wont sip into the spark plug holes when the gasket goes bad, i've seen this in many DOHC engines.
I have gone through that. One of the sparkplug sealings came off, when I put the camshaft housing back in place. I have noticed white smoke as soon as the manifold reached a certain temperature, because of the oil dropping on it. Motorcycle engine.

Had a compression test done on my 2006 4.6 v8 f150. It was low on compression in two cylinders. What could this mean? I was told I would need a new engine… but could it be a small repair, and that the repair requires taking out the whole engine, which is why they would charge for a new engine instead of replacing say the head gasket or something else?? Like idk maybe some sort of leak???
I also noticed the oil pan gasket at the bottom of the engine is leaking…. And it’s been leaking for a while before my truck started to lose power.
Just curious what you guys think the possibilities might be..
They did say of coils will suffer from disfunction when dipped into too much lube
Why is it so floppy ? For people who say "he probably knew and decided not to repair it.", It doesn't matter, it's the mechanic's responsibility to inform him of the issue and approximative cost of repair, it is up to the client whether to go through with the repair or not, not everyone has a money tree in his backyard and not everyone has a backyard. Be a bit realistic folks.
what about that oil filter housing did you check that, I have replaced about 20 of those things common problem. you would think after a couple years of redesign would be nice but hey it makes me money
Yeah oil ring seal under each spark plug hole under the valve covers. 🤙💯👀
Ohhhhh, this is the kinda guy that tries to have a casual conversation at the YMCA locker room after getting out of shower......
We your shop was close to me!
Who in the world designs an engine where you have to take the whole intake off just to access the spark plugs? Also why they don't implement some sort of a vertical plate along the gasket so the oil wont sip into the spark plug holes when the gasket goes bad, i've seen this in many DOHC engines.
We use to it by now
Coil pack by Lexington steel
I was NOT expecting that to be flaccid
I have gone through that. One of the sparkplug sealings came off, when I put the camshaft housing back in place. I have noticed white smoke as soon as the manifold reached a certain temperature, because of the oil dropping on it. Motorcycle engine.
That’s one floppy coil ya got there!
