Need help fast, spark plugs drenched in oil.
Do you think it could be a head gasket? The leakage into the cylinders
is mainly in the number 1 and 2 cylinders (closest to the passenger side). Like I said, the number 4 cylinder looked brand spanking new. ~Sean |

I wish I could just get it started. Ever since it died on the highway,
I havent been able to get it to start. I need to get that oil out of the cylinders somehow, any ideas? Every time I try to start it, it starts for half a second and dies, cause the piston throws oil up onto the plugs making them not spark. I was wondering, maybe if I can get the oil out of the cylinders, it will start. and run long enough for me to figure out if I let the oil fall into the cylinder or if the rings are bad, I am going to do a compression check tomorrow. ~Sean |

Lay a rag ontop of the plug holes to catch the splatter. One should also disconnect the "coil pack" otherwise there will be no place for them to ground to which can ruin them. Also to keep from throwing fuel all over the place turn the ignition key on, press the gas pedal ALL the way to the floor for WOT, then crank the engine. This is the clear flood mode and will keep the fuel injectors from pulsing. |
