Default Spark Plug Wires : pull out = OIL !!! HELP!!

I got my 94 Acura Integra about a year ago, with 90k miles on the LS motor. it was leaking oil through valve cover gasket, so i replace it with brand new valve cover gasket kit. now i pull out the sparkplug wires and its flooded in oil. i clean it up, take off my valve cover gasket and seal it again with the seal, couple weeks later, its pull it out, still flooded in oil, HOW CAN I FIX THIS and WHAT MIGHT I BE DAMAGING??

i dont even know if you can fix it....i know that i had the same problem with my 95 ls head, and no matter how much i would seal and replace the gasket it would still get oil in there.
maybe someone out there knows what is going on.

I agree with this person! Spend $12 at honda, buy the tube of Honda Bond and apply a little to the Valve cover where the grommets insert, and a little to the head where the grommets come in contact with the cylinder head spark plug cylinders.

Lot's of luck!

No Maing! As Long as your plugs are properly seated, and the plug wires are snuggly attatched I don't see any damage being done. The Oil is just pooling in the cylinder.

If the oil isnt getting inside the combustion chamber and the plugs aren't fouling b/c oil is getting b/t the boot and plug, other than a little oil loss, you should be fine. Just take the plugs out and sop up the oil every oil change.

Some cheep gasket maker works just fine. Black or Orange High heat. Walmart is like 3 or 4 bucks.
Just place a thin layer around the whole gasket and rings, then replace valve cover. Should work just fine. Save a few bucks from honda bond.

hard no unless you don't have a 10 mm 3/8 socket then you need to buy some tools. It should take like 10 minutes to change the gasket and use some rtv or hondabond.
