Lol, the oil is the problem. The tube should be clean and dry. I bet the spark is arcing to the valve cover. You most likely need new spark plug tube seals, but you will need to remove the valve cover for that and thus you will need a new valve cover gasket too

Yo how would you fix a sercurity problem? My home boys wip will start up but won't stay on even if I put my foot to the floor. I already changed the fule filter,spark plugs, and wires there is a light on the dash that keeps blinkin. This cat told us that it might be something with the security and everthing that we were going through he was describing. He aslo said that there might be a wire loose in the steering wheel that connects to the ignition.


Any body got any other ideas, I don't care how hard it is.
