Default Up date on 95 Honda accord overheating,,

Checked for leaks,and the rad has a hole in it.Thats why it heated up.I dont think its anything wrong with the head,for there is no white smoke,and the plugs all look good,,not washed out.BUT i do have some oil in my plug wells,,now the car skips a bit,since i removed my plugs and put them back in.Could that liltte bit of oil be causing the skip>i cleaned the small amount of oil from the plug wells as good as i can,,and cleaned up the boots with w-D 40,,,no difference.the car worked fine before i checked the plugs ... there is also no oil in rad,and no antifreeze in oil..
Thanks!

Most ignition problems like this do not manifest until you service them. I have replaced many coils, and many plug wires because once servicing them, they are never put back in the EXACT same spot, or they are damaged in the process. Oil in your spark plug tubes points to a valve cover gasket leak, or a spark plug tube seal leak in the rocker assembly. I cannot remember off the top of my head if the Accord uses these o-ring seals, but it is a bain for most vintage (1995 and older) Honda's.

Thanks...yes i cleaned out the oil,,(wasnt a large amount),and put plug wires back where they belong,,and still cant get the skip out.Ill go over the wires again.Would there be a bad plug just by taking out and installing?..Maybe?Thanks you for your advice .
