Fouled spark plug has oil on it. Bad o-ring?

question also. about 3 mos ago the #2 spark plug had oil on it just as it does now. I replaced all four O rings and the vavle cover gasket. what are the chances that it would just do it agiain. could there be another reason this is happening?

the head was replaced aboout 6 mos ago and this all started about 3 mos later. is there a connection? When Cisco had the head done there is a chance he had work done to it that I dont know about, at least that is what one of his co workers told me. I am lost and cant figure this out

thanks in advance for your help.

sounds like a fuel problem, check the injectors/filter. also check your plugs make sure none of them are filed or anything.

Luckily that's all it was and nothing major.

yeah so I am installing new plugs, Valve cover gasket and spark plug O rings tomorrow....hopefully this will straighten her out

I put the car on the scanner today and they guy freaked cause 14 codes came up :o
We converted my car form Automatic to Manual so I had like 9 codes just for the tranny alone the look on his face was priceless untill he realized what I was talkign about
It also said all 4 spark plugs were misfiring (the oil on the spark plugs I am sure) and it said my IAC was malfunctioning so that will b e my next thing to fix also

thanks for the insight guys I am not good witht eh diagnosing of the car but now that I know what is wrong I am going to start there and see what happens
