OIl on spark plug threads?
I changed the spark plugs on my car and noticed that they had oil on the threads. Why? Should I be worried?
Thanks

How many miles are on your car? did it have the ring placment problem? Do you burn oil? Chances are oil is slipping by the rings. When you jump on it look in the rear view for a puff of smoke.
I have 83k miles and my car had the problem and never fixed, just keep a close watch on the oil level.
