alrights thanks. uhh yea its been awhile since i replaced any seals,gaskets etc. would anything else cause oil on plugs because recently messed up a valve, im preety sure its bent cuz it makes a ticking noise.

well if that is not of any cause, wut should i do first or is more likely of being the cause, because i see that it may be a few things.thanks.

probably one of the easiest and cheapest ways to fix or check. just remove your valve cover and make sure the rubber gaskets around the spark plug holes are in good shape. if they are hard and brittle, then they could be allowing oil to pass by and get into the spark plug hole. so when you remove the spark plug, it looks as if the motor is fouling, when all reality, the oil covered the spark plug on its way out.

good luck.

yes i did. im about to replace my valvetrain with ferrea standard size valves,KMS dual race springs, n Ti_retainers

i doubt it but your rings could let blow by happen and you could let oil on top of the pisons. its just a thought how many miles do you have on the motor

change the 4 rubber seals on you valve cover, the ones aligned with your plugs.

well that would make sense, if it's bent (ticking noise) then oil is getting in there and causing the plug to roast :-\, I hate when valves go wrong, usually messed the head up good

Anyways, hope u get it fixed...
