Oil on 4 spark plug threads Whats up guys I was just wondering if anyone had some tips for me before I started pulling her apart. The only plugs with oil on the threads (not on electrode) is 3,4 and 7,8. My car isnt using oil and my mods are LS6 mani, slp lid/bellow, kooks LTS + some. Should I start by checking the mani to see if the pcv has oil in it? I was going to do a comp. test today but unfortunately I need a different spark plug connector =(.. Any advice would be appreciated.

Oil in the intake runner walls is usual. You could've had blow by on the piston rings and the oil squeezed out to the plugs. Was it thin runny oil or caked on thick oil
