middle plug well full of oil(advice please)
« on: 20 September 2008, 19:26:04 »

my v6 mini-facelift has been running bad for about 2 weeks now,missing,using alot of fuel,so i thought that it could of been the leads/spark plugs so i asked for advice about whether to buy some and some of you fellow oofers told me not to bother buying any until i checked the plug wells for oil!!!well i did today and only the middle one one the drivers side was full of oil ;) so after poking around on the forum alot of people have said that it could be caused by a breather blockage or the cam cover gasket so i was wondering what i should do please???? ::)change the gasket first or try cleaning the breathers or do both :-/
thanks in advance for your advice :y :y
