Hi, I have a 2001 Honda Civic DX 1.7 and today it has been running rough. I used my code reader and it was throwing code p0301 misfire cylinder 1. I took off vavle cover gasket, changed plugs and noticed the plug tubes were filled with oil. I cleaned the oil from the plugs and tubes and put new valve gasket on and new coil pack gaskets on, but can't figure out how to clean the oil from inside the coil pack tube.

My questions:

Will the oil in the coil pack make it go bad?
Is there any way to clean inside the tube?
Can the little bit of oil in the tube stay in the tube and be ok?
What can be used to clean the coil pack tubes? Acetone? Brake cleaner?

Thanks for your future replies.

Start by replacing the oil seals in the cylinder head cover.

to answer the question you can try cleaning it with some q tips and no a little bit of oil in the coil pack shouldnt mess it up. if it is still messing up consider getting a new coil pack before the misfire effects other components in your engine
