oil in the spark plug hole
Hello again everyone, just got the new 88 s4 home yesterday. Found one spark plug hole full of oil. The spark electrode was clean, the wire still works, looked in the factory micro f. directions and only saw cam cover gaskets. Is there o rig or some type of seal between cam cover and spark hole or dose the cylinder have a serious boo boo . thanks john

Each spark plug hole has a seal they can be replaced by removing the cam cover, also replace the cam cover seal and use Hondabond on the head/cap junctions where the cam cover seal fits

If your removing the cam covers now is the time to replace the cam chain tentioner pads as well.
