Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

oil in spark plug hole

I have a 2k Outback, 2.2l engine.

I recently did a tune up and when I pulled the number 1 spark plug wire out, there was oil in the hole. what would cause this?

THanks

If there is no oil on the surface of the head around the sperk plug hole, then you have, or have had a loose spark plug. If that is the case then what you see isn't oil, its a build up of burnt fuel. I had this problem and all I had to do was tighten the spark plug.
