'92 Honda Accord - oily spark plugs
Every time I change my spark plugs I notice a lot of oil on the electrodes.
Do I have a valve or piston ring leak? Thanks, Percy |
Re: '92 Honda Accord - oily spark plugs
Probably valvecover leak or Valve Guide Leak i know on some cars oil gets
into the combustion chamber because of the Valve Guide Seal Leaking.

Re: '92 Honda Accord - oily spark plugs
If the oil is on the threads also, then the seals on the valve cover need
replacing. If it's just on the electrodes then yes it could be valve stem seals or rings.

Re: '92 Honda Accord - oily spark plugs
Thanks. I've changed the valve cover seal before and it helped for a little
while but now it's happening again. Oil is getting all over the threads and the electrode. Is it hard to change the valve stem seals? My '92 Honda Accord with 160,000 has been doing okay so far except for a little minor problems here and there (had to change the oxygen senor and the oil pan gasket). Will a valve stem seal problem get worse or cause adverse effect on the engine?

Re: '92 Honda Accord - oily spark plugs
I personally have never had to change valve stem seals so i wouldnt know
exactly how hard it is. but if you buy a chilton or haynes manual you should be able to get it done within a reasonable amount of time just dont start without having everything you need to complete the job.
