Only Coolant Will Come Out Since They Go Through The Coolant Passage. Oil Leaks Around That Area Can Make Its Way In The Conector And Create Problems. If You Have A Scanner To Check Actual Values You Can Tap The Side
Of The Block With Metal Object To Create A Knock Condition. If Its Working
You Will See The Values Change And Timing Will Be Retarded. Dont Hit The Block With A Large Hammer Or Hit It So Hard That You Damage Anything, Just Taps Will Do Fine.

Ok guys, I just got done with the plugs and wires a little bit ago and the car is doing great. The misfire is gone and there is no more sputtering, I wonder how long it was messed up because the car runs like a beast now. BTW the plugs I took out were gapped at around .070. I put TR55 in with Taylor wires. Everyone who says these plugs are so hard to do, man it is NOT hard. It takes time thats all. I'm also on stock manifolds too. Thanks everyone for all the help.
