Dear Members,

Aoa,

Hope you all are fine, I have Chevrolet joy 2007.I am having problem that one of car plug got oil in it.I went to mechanic and he told me that one cylinder of car (having plug with oil) is not working. I am little bit confused by mechanic as he is giving two different statements at a time

1.Firstly he is saying that oil seals of plug is leaked and that is why plug is having oil
2.Secondly cylinder is not working

Expert opinion is required what could be the actual cause.

Thanks</SPAN>

@lucky10,

Its DIY job. Go to Chevy dealer and purchase o ring for the spark plug tube, and a new set of spark plugs.
Take out the defective plug, the plug tube should come out also. If it does not take off the tappet cover, you will see the o ring over or under the spark plug tube. Change it.

Install as dismantled, install new plug. Thats it.
